Lighter syntax for `create()`? about bonzo HOT 4 OPEN

Using new('div') would read better aloud, and make more intuitive sense as english. In my brief tests, having a member function of an object called new() does NOT conflict with the JS new keyword.

im digging this. should we worry about new'ing multiple elements, at all? that might be dumb and complicating things that don't need to be. i'm all for this alias though.

It's really just an alias for document.createElement(tagname), the overhead of bonzo.create() can be completely avoided for this case. But because it's just duplicating an existing function that's available across browsers then perhaps this is just fluff?

We did this on Medium.com in an internal version of ender (just extending $).

$.createElement = function (tagName) {
  return $(document.createElement(tagName))
}

there were cases in the Editor where i'd need to create an Ender element out of a tag name. and it was more of a hassle to do this...

$('<' + tagName + '/>')
