Nathan wants to be able to inline arbitary kinds of things into
an HTML+ document:

Does the inlined object behaves like a character or a paragraph?

Do you play sound immediately or when the user clicks the link?

Do you retrieve an "inlined" Postscript file automatically or
wait until the user clicks the link?

HTML+ does provide some support for inlined linked HTML or plain text,
but we need to clarify what we want.
