I'm wondering if it would be possible to have type-safe convenience methods
for creating elements, so as the user does not have to provide the string
tag name, nor cast the object, maybe something like :

HTMLButtonElement button = HTMLButtonElement.createElement();

instead of

HTMLButtonElement button = (HTMLButtonElement)
document.createElement("button");
