The term 'lede' is more commonly spelled as 'lead' by journalists
throughout the world. It seems like a sensible idea, although I'm
wondering why you added the P element in your example.<br>

I'm not an expert on this, but wikipedia distinguishes them (of course
wikipedia is not absolute truth):<br>
<br>
"Lede (pronounced <span title="Pronunciation in IPA" class="IPA">/lid/</span>)
is a traditional spelling, from the archaic English, used to avoid
confusion with the printing press type formerly made from lead or the
typographical term 'leading'." [1] <br>
<br>
Anyway, I think this is a sensible idea indeed. I suppose the
<lede> element would be used inside a <p> element,
surrounding the first sentence or so, as a lead/lede is different from
(or, as far as I know, a part of) the first paragraph.<br>
