Irssi already does something similiar optionally. /SET
scrollback_save_formats ON, /SET theme xxx, /SB REDRAW would redraw the
window with new theme.

Storing all the data for that at least doubles the memory usage, so I
don't think it should be enabled by default or especially required.

/mark-conversion would be nice though :)
