I'd worry about this in XML, but not in HTML.  If you generate HTML with
DTML, you take your chances, and if you want structural integrity you use
ZPT to generate it instead.

I have yet to use tal:replace and tal:attributes on the same tag, so this
may be a non-issue.

Define a TAL program class, and test isinstance?

Yes.

Already done, but thanks for reminding me to update *.txt for the final
release.
