tagz can be used as a library, like you were using it, but in that  
case you need to be explicit about the receiver.  tagz is much simpler  
to use in it's primary capacity - as mix-in - it is in this way that  
completely POLS sgml generation and context/binding sensitivity can be  
had.  the binding hack traditional builders use is there precisely to  
disambiguate between contexts - tagz simply avoids the issue  
altogether.  that's what i meant by 'lame': it's totally open, and yet  
in a separate context with the builder pattern.


kind regards.
