 ###Element type
-The tree elements provide, apart from :select and (), the following accessors:
-- .name = the elements tagname
-- .attributes = a table with keys and values for the element's attributes
-- .id = the value of the element's id attribute, if present
-- .classes = an array with the classes listed in element's class attribute, if any
-- :getcontent() = the raw text between the opening and closing tags of the element
-- .nodes = an array with the element's child elements
-- .parent = the elements that contains this element; root.parent is nil
-- :gettext() = the raw text of the complete element, starting with `"<tagname"` and ending with `"/>"`
-- .level = how deep the element is in the tree; root level is 0
-- .root the root element of the tree; root.root is root
-- .deepernodes = a Set containing all elements in the tree beneath this element, including this element's .nodes
-- .deeperelements = a table with a key for each distinct tagname in .deepernodes, containing a Set of all deeper element nodes with that name
-- .deeperattributes = as .deeperelements, but keyed on attribute name
-- .deeperids = as .deeperelements, but keyed on id value
-- .deeperclasses = as .deeperelements, but keyed on class name
