This made me think of how I cut my teeth on the Web with <blink> and <marquee> tags strewn about a dot-html file in Windows Notepad. And yes, of course, a URL for an Under Construction animated GIF was an <img>’s src. But those tags. It makes me think that a Cambrian explosion of positively ridiculous Web Components could cultivate a wide range of “idiosyncratic and intimate, peculiar and distinctive” text/html responses that reduce the ante for personal expression to a Parson’s problem within a text editor.
