Sounds like a good idea.
Perhaps you could create a Bugzilla enhancement for this?

Not sure about parsing WML pages - they seem to be rather different
from (X)HTML.
But it should not be too difficult to specify a different parser for
certain types of content - we could just add a wmlParser.classname
property alongside the htmlParser.classname.
Perhaps we could also add:
htmlParser.mimetypes
wmlParser.mimetypes
to specify the MIME media types that JMeter can handle, as well as
which is HTML and which is WML?

A Bugzilla enhancement would be useful...
Actually, don't bother creating a Bugzilla request...
It was easy enough to add the code, so please just check out the
nightly build 2-1.20060604 instead, and see if it works for you.
Configuration details are in jmeter.properties.
