I've been thinking about that for a while. I was considering a few other options that I might want to toss in the code and somehow never quite get around to it. What you propose is a heck of a lot cleaner and will clear up some other issues. I guess I was the bad lazy. I hope you don't mind if I steal your code :)

Incidentally, if you haven't seen it, HTML::TokeParser::Simple is now at version 2.1 and has three HTML munging methods added that cover some very common situations that people keep wanting to deal with.
