Ok, so say we make that class in the examples, and we use it everywhere where we now use WebMarkupContainer. I almost smell those messages pouring in like: 'where can I find that component? Why isn't it part of core?'. I still feel that of all the convenience we can think of, this is the lightest offender and is actually helpful in the way that it gives a better name for something people will do a lot. And even if they can easily create such a component themselves, they probably don't, just like none of use haven't for any of the comparable cases. Maybe I should put this differently, or start a vote: who is really against this?
