 Setting up a class lookup scheme

 Attribute based lookup
-......................
+----------------------
 
 This scheme uses a mapping from attribute values to classes.  An attribute
 name is set at initialisation time and is then used to find the corresponding
 value.  It is set up as follows::
 
   >>> id_class_mapping = {} # maps attribute values to element classes

 Implementing namespaces
