My feeling about markup languages is: If something could be done as attribute
or tag, do it as tag. In Cougar the number of unique attributes is already
higher than the number of unique tags. Other hypermedia markup languages
(docbook, tei, ...) have a ratio of something like 2-3 unique tags to 1 unique
attribute.
What remains is the question, whether MENU and DIR are needed at all.
