You could do it with DOM.createElement("ul"). But you would be using
some "lower level" API directly. I believe it's good to have a clear
encapsulation of a HTML construct that at least I use quite frequently
now.
@Andy:
I no longer understand the purpose of that clear method as well. Have
to check if it can be removed...
Never used the H1, H2,... tags in GWT until now. Just Labels with CSS
classes instead.
