Yeah that may be less needed with WO 5.4 though.
I used it as follows:
<td class="style">
</td>
That would turn into:
[ .html ]
<webobject name = "MyTD"></webobject>
[ .wod ]
MyTD : WOGenericContainer {
        elementName = "td";
        class = "style";
}
Then I could bind the class attribute to a method in my component to  
have the class be something more interesting at run-time:
MyTD : WOGenericContainer {
        elementName = "td";
        class = myStyle;
}
But in WO 5.4.x you can now simply do this:
<td class="[myStyle]">
</td>
