Stefan said "Element", not "element".

"Element" is a class in the "ElementTree" module, which can be used to 
*represent* an XML element in an XML infoset, including all the data 
*inside* the XML element, and any data *between* that XML element and 
the next one (which is always character data, of course).

It's not very difficult, really; especially if you, as Stefan said, 
think in infoset terms rather "a sequence of little piggies" terms.
