Absolutely. It's also not trivial to get right when there are bits with untagged speech. I've discovered ambiguities in texts when narrating an audio book. Really you need to at least record a narration to ensure you tag the dialogue properly, but it could be done using custom span class per speaker in HTML and then the CSS has speaker commented out for a regular renderer and your custom app then ignore the comment symbol.
