No, that would be getElementsByTagName :)

Attached.

I have only implemented it all the way through to the HTML writer,
so all other writers treat the tag as usual.

I noticed named_tags and can guess at the purpose of this list. We
will have to decide on a policy what to do when the name directive
is specified in front of one of these.

I also did not bother writing a test-suite. You probably have an
automated framework, no?

Enjoy.
