You could do that at runtime (see code snippet below). May need a new plugin api somewhere, though, depending on when exactly you wanted to do it.

And that's a problem right there: The <span> tag is not allowed inside a title attribute. Same goes for button texts and a few other things. So there are some text strings that have to stay plain text. I'm afraid figuring out which ones at runtime is pretty much impossible.

Hmm …

<?php

$LANG42 = array(
    1 => 'Hello',
    2 => 'World'
);

echo $LANG42[1] . "\n\n";

$_lang42 = array();

foreach ($LANG42 as $key => $value) {
    $_lang42[$key] = '<span>' . $value . '</span>';
}

$LANG42 = $_lang42;

echo $LANG42[1] . "\n\n";

?>
