Hm, I'm unsure about this. Can you give some more information? There are
two cases:

1. Plain text subtitles (such as those in your sample). Are such tags
supposed to be supported in plain text subtitles? Is this documented
somewhere?

2. SRT subtitles. SRT is translated to ASS by FFmpeg for us, so Bino
never sees SRT. This conversion from SRT to ASS is done here:
<http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git;a=blob;f=libavcodec/srtdec.c;h=aa73f4c7bf45a74f6dd7ec0789bfe12fea756237;hb=HEAD>
line 48-184. This function converts several SRT tags to ASS tags, but
not <i>. If <i> is supposed to be supported by SRT, then FFmpeg needs to
be fixed.
