If I understand what this does, my HTML Tree can do this by
doing:
<INPUT TYPE=text NAME="first_name" VALUE="" CLASS="value::first_name">
where the VALUE would be filled in from the value stored in:
$this->{ first_name }
where $this is a reference to an object created by the
associated .pm file and first_name was (presumeably) read in
from a database via DBI.

This can be done by doing:
<A HREF="/somehandler?email=REPLACE" CLASS="repl_email">
and in the .pm:
$node->atts->{ href } =~ s/REPLACE/$real_address/;
or just by changing the entire value:
<A HREF="/somehandler?email=bogus" CLASS="href::handler">
where "handler" is taken from:
$this->{ handler }

This is specifically supported by doing (example take from
Apache::HTML::ClassParser man page):
<SELECT NAME="Flavor">
<OPTION CLASS="select::flavor_id" VALUE="0">Chocolate
<OPTION CLASS="select::flavor_id" VALUE="1">Strawberry
<OPTION CLASS="select::flavor_id" VALUE="2">Vanilla
</SELECT>

Yes, in HTML Tree.
