This would tend to convey a page section (the side bar) that's been
divided into 3 smaller portions, hence the division tags. Obviously,
you could do all of this with just divisions, just sections, or
neither. Together, however, they might have a little more meaning than
alone. Is it a huge advance in semantics? I don't think so, but I
would eventually take advantage of it were it implemented and
supported.
Wouldn't it be nice if we could get browsers to interpret ^ (or
something) as meaning 'div id=' (and something else for 'class=').
Then we could have, xml style code, such as:
<^pageborder>
<^content>
blah blah
</content>
</pageborder>
MUCH more readable, and encouraging for semantic coding/markup?
