I like it!  Note though:

   * I don't (yet?) use wwwoffle
   * I'm thinking of a similar feature built into what you might think of as a 
"universal browser front-end"  (but not very far yet in the building stage)
   * You didn't really say that (or I didn't read carefully enough) it would 
use regexes (or similar), which is what I would probably want to do.
