------- Additional Comments from Dave Hyatt <hyatt at apple.com>
There is a pretty big conceptual mistake in this code, and it involves the
handling of attributes.  You can't simply query for attributes in methods like
addChild and just do a one-time fetch, since you basically have destroyed all
dynamism by doing so.  You need to be more like HTML/SVG, which either map
attributes to style (using the MappedAttribute concept in parseMappedAttribute
and mapToEnty), or dirty in some way such that the renderer can regrab relevant
info from the element (see various updateFromElement methods).
