This looks nice and compact Using opDispatch to specify the tag (I guess
that is what you are using to create a tag "book" by calling xml.book())
feels like misusing opDispatch, though. Does it add readability in
contrast to passing the tag as a string to some function?
How do you write a tag named "tight"? Or a tag calculated at runtime?
Something more conventional would be
xml.tag("book", attr("year", book.year), { ...
but I'm not sure that pairing the attribute name and value adds
readability or mere noise.
