While we're on the topic of commonizing things at Element - can we introduce an 'inner' property on Element? This would map to innerHTML for HTMLElements. Other languages could introduce parsing rules for getting/setting that property. Presumably XML grammars would use the rules at http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/apis-in-html-documents.html#innerhtml
