Customize formatting

CFH supports 4 formats: Bold, Italic, Underlined and Yellow background.
In HTML these formats are represented like:

<b class="cross-field-highlighter">Bold</b>
<i class="cross-field-highlighter">Italic</i>
<u class="cross-field-highlighter">Underlined</u>
<mark class="cross-field-highlighter">Yellow Background</mark>

User can customize these formats using CSS styles in card template.

.cross-field-highlighter {
    color: DarkSlateGray;
    background-color: LightGray;
    font-size: 1.5em;
    font-family: sans-serif;
}

Would it be possible to include the square brackets in this sentence?

Sentence after using the highlighter:
音[おと]で 引 [ひ ]き 寄 [よ ]せてその 間[かん]に …

Source word:
引[ひ]き 寄[よ]せる

Example of when brackets are also highlighted:

New release of Cross-Field Highlighter addon (v1.5.0):

  1. [BUG] Fix dialog state saving when switching profile
  2. [MISC] Tested for Anki 25.02
  3. [MISC] Add test-case “Stop words: entire collocation comprises stop words”
27

Actually, it works already. See case #36.

I think, it highlights words separately because of spaces between symbols in the target sentence (the dots are indicating spaces):
