I think I agree with you on this - TAG could have a more prominent place in
documents - it's not mentioned at the top of the section on HTML Helpers,
and yet is the "catchall / make-your-own".... it would be good to mention at
the beginning of section 5.2 (separate from how you fall on "LEGEND" as
a desirable standard helper).   Instead of getting billing at the intro or
section 5.2 on p. 118, it get's hidden at the end of the section under
"Custom Helpers".
