That would be pretty cool ;)  But for that, how useful is it to
actually store the data in the class attributes?  class is how uF
finds data and names fields, but for data storage (especially numeric
data like this) it seems odd... especially since you're then storing
data invisibly to the user.  I think tagclouds need to use class for
styling to work (as has been said, for IE), but the uF needs to store
in title or inside a tag (as is pretty much uF 'tradition'), to make
the data easier to access both for computers AND the user.
