  That tracks, but I have this setup where I lay out a table to
  map out my markup language [1] and then use some dynamic code
  to spin up the classes based on that table [0], and I am not
  really sure how your way would fit in with that.

globals_dict = globals()
for name, props in element_properties.items():
    cls = type(name.capitalize(), (Element,), {'element_properties': props})
    globals_dict[name.capitalize()] = cls

element_properties = {
