With a filter the endpoint isn't a problem.  Only identifying the
top-level can be tricky—but you could use <h·> tags, assuming they are
not varying.

That a shame.  Is there any other 'easy' way to recover the element
representation of, say, a headline?  Often it's a lot easier to work
with than regexp "hacks".
