SWC uses block inline attribute lists for e.g. code blocks, but I think this HTML tag is much simpler and more understandable than <pre>*Enter*{:.keyboard} ...</pre>

Change text color, background color and padding around inline code blocks

Example of the problem: see "Ten Things You Need To Know" from http://swcarpentry.github.io/lesson-example/
For numbered lists that have more that 9 elements 1 em padding on the left is not sufficient. The result is that "1" in numbers "10" and above is printed on top of the border of encapsulating HTML block. 2 em padding solves this problem for lists with less that 100 elements. It should be safe to safe to assume that numbered lists in Carpentries' lessons should not have more than 99 items.

1.  Merging @twitwi's expand/collapse.
2.  Replacing text with icon for show/hide.
3.  Rewriting example to show other possibilities.
