My current solution is about quickly styling all of the content. So
you can explore
your styling options. Maybe for deployment it should be possible to pass
a xpath style filter to limit which nodes are converted.
I like your server side script (Go Python!) but I wanted to stick to JS because
I wanted something to use with results of JS Badge calls where JSON returns
are the norm.
