This seems a great idea. There just seems to be one thing lacking
(maybe I'm missing something).
How would one format alternating blocks of n elements with this scheme?
(Using either syntax) I can see a desire to do something like
TR:child(1,6,3) /* address first three of six */
TR:child(2,6,3) /* address second three of six */
to have alternating bands of equal size. (I'll leave you to improve
the syntax; this was just an omission which jumped out at me).
Cheers,
Ian
