This class is the reference implementation of the Element interface.
An element's length is its number of subelements. That means if you want to check if an element is truly empty, you should check BOTH its length AND its text attribute.
The element tag, attribute names, and attribute values can be either bytes or strings.
*tag* is the element name. *attrib* is an optional dictionary containing element attributes. *extra* are additional element attributes given as keyword arguments.
