As for ref and cite, I'd probably mark these up as keyword.control, 
where the rest is currently keyword.function (and will be changed to 
support.function), so this should give them different styles (at least 
when the generic themes break up keyword.control, keyword.storage, and 
support (currently keyword.function)).

For bf/it you _could_ make a LaTeX theme with only two settings:
    declaration.textbf entity -- bold
    declaration.textit entity -- italic

However, it'd probably be a good idea to provide some basic styles for 
these cases, so instead we'd mark up the argument as: markup.italic or 
markup.bold. These would also be useful for HTML, Markdown, and all the 
other humane text/markup systems (including wiki syntaxes a.s.o.).

Additionally there would be markup.underline and then 
markup.underline.link to be used for links, but by default will thus 
just be underlined.

Makes sense?
