We considered something like this before, but it was thought to be too  
complicated and not backwards compatible enough. In the current draft you  
will find <iframe srcdoc=...></iframe> which does what you propose with  
the relatively small change that the sandboxed code is inside an attribute  
rather than an element. For fallback the src attribute can be used.
