/**
 * Preface: This is a horrible terrible function and should only be used
 *          in the most dire circumstances.  In fact, it probably shouldn't
 *          exist at all.
 *
 * This function will cause a given DOM node to be completely thrown away and
 * re-rendered.  This is helpful to screenreaders because JavaScripty stuff
 * doesn't work so well.  They generally read the page once and call it good.
 *
 *
 * *******PLEASE REMOVE THIS FUNCTION WHENEVER IT CAN BE DONE*******
