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.
