Re: DOM Tampering

The other approach is to try and get the unmodified DOM back from the 
browser, if HTTP cacheing is in place then one could simply GET it again 
and leverage document.implementation or xhr.responseXML to get an 
untouched DOM to parse.

There will probably be more approaches, but probably something we want 
to keep a watch on advise on.

Worth raising a bug / action?
