Yes, I think I mentioned that in my original post.  Its a good solution, 
but I think of it as "out of band" meaning you are using a separate 
mechanism (css) to provide styling information.

As far as a general solution, its quite html specific, I don't think 
even SVG supports it.  And as far as being an html specific solution, 
its kind of a kludge since it requires you to create a fake element like 
a div tag that you can style.  But then again, that's all css offers, so 
its a good hack.
