Unless you can find them in your font (like ² and ³), it would require
having markup in the text, which we don't support at all. However, now
that we have a separate edit mode, we could conceivably add standard
markup support to text editing, which I'm sure many people would love.
In fact, we should be able to replace our home-hacked text editing with
embedding a GtkTextEntry or similar.
