Yes, that sounds straightforward.

Definitely possible, although a little more work. In fact, wmlbrowser 
allows all kinds of element nesting which should be illegal. I did make 
a start on this once, but I found that all manner of pages were 
breaking, so I kind of gave up on it. But it certainly could be done.
