Comment #1 on issue 105 by [email protected]: Navigate , search and  
modify the tree
http://code.google.com/p/html5lib/issues/detail?id=105

The default "simpletree" treebuilder is very basic and doesn't have support  
for
things like searching the tree. However the idea is that people use  
existing tree
implementations such as minidom, ElementTree or lxml. So for example one  
can do:

tree = html5lib.parse(input, treebuilder="lxml")

The resulting tree will be a lxml tree with all the usual functionality  
such as xpath.

We have no plans to spend time turning simpletree into a  
feature-competitive tree
implementation (although I note that modification of nodes is already  
possible simply
by changing the relevant attributes).

If I hve misunderstood our request please explain further and reopen the  
bug.
