What about using U+0331 "combining macron below" or U+0320 "combining
minus below"? Here are some samples:

U+0331

"̱test"̱
“̱test”̱

U+0320

"̠test"̠
“̠test”̠

Modern HTML phased out <s>, and <del> has semantic meanings
innapropriate for this case. It would be better to use CSS
"text-decoration: line-through". This point has been raised in the
comments of the original post.

That could be bad for people with color blindness (which may reach up
to some 10% of the genetically male population).
