Such things would be very nice to have, it was part of the
basis of my <IF ...> markup. Though instead of overloading
the present <A ...> tag, it would be better to create a new
tag:
<IMBED HREF="..." TYPE="mime type information" ...>
Alternate content
</IMBED>
This way if your browser didn't fetch the object it could
know what kind of object it was (display that audio icon).
Or pre-create a movie player "shell".
I would like the ability to _mix_ document formats, have
HTML documents contain RTF and PDF along with audio and
video.

ps. It should be defined to recurse...
It would allow for an easy way to create "open on the fly"
menus, where the lists of objects inside were in an IMBED tag.
