"dom_class" is intriguing feature of the the new simply helpful plug-in, which I suspect might be destined for Rails 1.3.  I wonder if this might make it easier to embed microformats in Rails applications by keying of appropriate Class names.  Or, whether we could somehow "teach" dom_class about differnet microformats mappings?!?

DOM Class names

<%= dom_class(object) %>

Creates a CSS class name based on the object’s class – so a ProductionType object would get a DOM class of production_type.

On its own, this new function maybe isn’t as exciting as the dom_id and render improvements, but it’s used in the next feature, and it’s encouraging good practice by having clear, readable and consistent class names for your DOM objects.
