This element would be extremely useful to someone with a screen reader.
It would create an implied UA hook for "skip to main content", for one.
With multiple postings within a page, it would create a reliable way of
"skimming" the main sections (by reading the first bit of content on each
posting), even when there are no headers or when the postings themselves
have internal sectioning and headers (especially if those are
inconsistent).
But how would it do this when <section> or <section role='article'>
would not? If the authors can't make the internal sectioning consistent,
do you expect them to make the internal "articling" consistent?
