That would make another issue on a "standard Python DOM extensions"
PEP. Unfortunately, so far, nobody has offered to draft one. Once it
is there and agreed, I think it won't be too hard to provide such a
feature in DOM implementations. The purpose of the PEP would be to
present the feature uniformly across DOM implementations, of course.
