Seems to have a good support across browsers https://caniuse.com/#search=aside
I expect using the most apposite tag is especially useful for the visually-impaired, whose screen-readers will take advantage of the tag structure where available.
Replacing null
with (list (alt-tag "aside"))
on lines
679 and 688 of scribble/base.rkt does the trick
Works in both scribble/base
and scribble/manual
- which honestly had me concerned until I tested it because one uses span
and the other blockquote
.

aside
cannot be used for margin-note*
because the tag cannot be used inline.
it probably could be used in the aside
probably could be changed in the stylesheet to have the css attribute display: inline;
or maybe inline as <aside style="display: inline;">
Robert Grimm pointed out that HTML has an
aside
tag, so that might be a more appropriate semantic markup for marginal notes thanp
