I mostly use HTML or the very similar xhtml mode.

The StrongHTML mode has some nice script facilities but doesn't 
generate xhtml. It inserts upper-case code and devotes a lot of effort 
into creating style attributes that would be better moved to a CSS 
file. (The same applies to Rich Goodwin's !HTML3 generator).

My problem with xhtml/HTML modes is that they too are rooted in the 
pre CSS era. Eg the upper-case buttons H1, H2 and style attributes 
etc.

The functions that I mostly use. Eg <div> </div>, <span> etc are not 
to be seen.

However, deep inside the mode is a bunch of shortcuts which include 
<div> in its various forms and a lot of other useful stuff.

So, what I want to do is to surface the shortcuts in a convenient 
fashion, and preferably in a way that means I don't have to restore it 
whenever StrongED changes.
