Ok, I had a practical need for this method, and I think the API I have 
is quite useable... here is the POD for what I plan to upload soon:

=head3 $elem->hash_map(hash => \%h, to_attr => $attr, excluding => 
\...@excluded)

This method is designed to take a hashref and populate a series of 
elements. For example:


  <table>
    <tr sclass="tr" class="alt" align="left" valign="top">
      <td sid="people_id">1</td>
      <td sid="phone">(877) 255-3239</td>
      <td sid="password">*********</td>
    </tr>
  </table>

In the table above, there are several attributes named C<sid>. If we 
have a hashref whose keys are the same:

  my %data = (people_id => 888, phone => '444-4444', password => 
'dont-you-dare-render');

Then a single API call allows us to populate the HTML while excluding 
those ones we dont:

  $tree->hash_map(hash => \%data, to_attr => 'sid', excluding => 
['password']);

Of course, the other way to prevent rendering some of the hash mapping 
is to not give that element the attr
you plan to use for hash mapping.
