Nope.

This is essentially the problem, there are no default tags, and
inserting markup would require that.

So yeah, what you have to do right now is write your own gmarkup
parser that does this. You could of course start with pango-markup.c
source code, and change it to modify a text buffer instead of a
PangoAttrList.

Should think of a GTK 2.2 or 3.0 solution, no doubt this feature will
be popularly requested.
