There are a lot of things proposed here that are completely ignoring the
idea of nested elements, which I think is a big mistake.
Frankly, I think the whole proposal needs to be rethought with an eye
towards supporting and preserving nested elements instead of trying to
just flatten everything out. If a user wanted things flat they would
have just started with that in the first place.
