Without thinking too much about it, I'd say that overlays seem to be
a better fit: each node is an overlay, the node's attributes can be stored
in the overlay's properties, the text corresponding to a node can be stored
directly in the buffer and retrieved by (buffer-substring (overlay-start o)
(overlay-end o)), ...
Overlays are no good for this because they will be lost completely
if you cut and paste. If you copy the text of a buffer
to another buffer, the overlays won't come along. (That is the purpose
of overlays.)
This information has to be *part of the text*.
