Oh! well, they'll all be xhtml, so that should let you throw down some 
xslt action.

Not quite Evil; I am quite fond of it, but I would say it's not a 
general-purpose programming language. The example I gave - get me a list 
of unique elements- is something like this in python:

for element in nodeset: adict[element.name] = element

while in XSLT it is the most brutally convoluted nonsense.

anyway, kid will get us there with mucho less code; as kid kind of 
incorporates XSLT, I will still use it where appropriate.
