For example, if topic A and topic C allow highlighting, and topic B does not, then a content reference chain of topic A-to-topic B-to-topic C should preserve any - highlighting elements in the referenced content. The result, however it is achieved, must be + highlighting elements in the referenced content. The result, however it is achieved, is equivalent to the result of resolving the conref pairs recursively starting from the original referencing element in topic A.
