Re: mini-languages for MVC view/controller manipulation

I, for one, think your HTML::Seamstress module is very cool and elegant. (So what if the idea originated elsewhere.) But, a couple comments on the html compilation bit:

In the line $name->hello_world(name => $content); where does that hello_world method come from? Seems to me that you really want to be saying $name->replace_with($content); (And you should probably then call $name->delete_content(); first.)

In your look_down call, don't you also want to include criteria to look for klass=content? I think that would be prudent.

There is a very nice extension of HTML::TreeBuilder by Matthew Sisk called HTML-Element-Extended. In both of our efforts, we have written a dozen or so convenience methods for common Treebuilder idioms. So, I am developing something called HTML::Element::Library which will have all of our methods in one place.

Thanks for the comments.
