Syd,

But, perhaps more importantly, keep in mind that Martin's sample code
drops the encoding of child elements.

Indeed, but not to drop them turns this into an overlap problem, since the new element will span across elements and text node fragments in the source. :->


 E.g.
       "A Detailed Analysis of Allusions to Markup Technology
        in Homer's <title>Iliad</title>"
would become
       <quote>A detailed ... Homer's Iliad</quote>
losing the <title> tags, I think.

Would that be:


  Just as the drudge marking meter with attribute syntax
  Counts lines left in the day's work, so godlike Achilles
  Gazed, all dismayed, on the hosts of the weary Achaians

...?

Cheers,
Wendell
