+The Element type is a simple but flexible container object, designed
+to store hierarchical data structures, such as simplified XML
+infosets, in memory. The element type can be described as a cross
+between a Python list and a Python dictionary.
+
+The ElementTree wrapper type adds code to load XML files as trees of
+Element objects, and save them back again.
