This is closer to what I need to do, but how would it handle situations
where the contents were mixed? like this:
<intro>
More, content, contentcontent, contentcontent
<p><b>Content, content, content</b></p>
<p>More, content, contentcontent, contentcontent,
contentcontent, contentcontent, contentcontent, contentcontent,
contentcontent, contentcontent, contentcontent, contentcontent,
contentcontent, contentcontent, contentcontent, contentcontent,
contentcontent, <some other tag>contentcontent</some other tag>,
contentcontent, contentcontent, contentcontent, contentcontent,
content</p>
</intro>
... would the copy within the intro tags, but not within any others be
treated as if it were a node?
