Really?

"The DIV and SPAN elements, in conjunction with the id and class
attributes, offer a generic mechanism for adding structure to documents.
These elements define content to be inline (SPAN) or block-level (DIV)
but impose no other presentational idioms on the content."

I also used to think that SPAN is for plain text only - this is probably
because XMLC generates the setText method for it. But it's generic and
can be used for including anything, even a whole DOC or XLS document
(once the document is converted to HTML :-)
