I just like to mention that custom markup is not restricted to
meaningful replacements in the page, but can equally be used to
initiate some global behaviour. A custom markup can call a custom
function, just as a custom action does. And it does not need to return
anything as replacement, i.e. it can be replaced with nothing, so
appears hidden.
