OK - for Dot and Jamies, then: how about listing the class membership in
the @title of each class hyperlink?

e.g. for floatingText we'd have:

<tr>
   <td class="wovenodd-col1">
      <span class="label">
         Parents
      </span>
   </td>
   <td class="wovenodd-col2">
      <span class="parent">
         <a class="link_odd_class"
            href="ref-model.divPart.html"
            title="ab eTree floatingText forest forestGrp graph l lg p
schemaSpec sp tree">
            model.divPart
         </a>
      </span>
   </td>
</tr>

That way you can discover individual elements, and at the same time learn the TEI class structure.
