FWIW, it seems that a better term for the concept you describe would be
"semantic binding language", since presentation isn't actually involved
anywhere. In the same vein CSS would be a "presentation binding language" and
XBL roughly a "behavior binding language". Having said that, I'm not sure I
follow the point that you are trying to make.
I think what's wanted is a Cascading Semantics Language. Its syntax
could be based on CSS. For example:
.masthead {
type:heading;
strength:high;
}
.division {
type:heading;
strength: normal;
}
.flow {
type:body;
strength:normal;
}
.aside {
strength:weaker;
}
Behaviours, script bindings, etc could be mixed into this.
