I totally agree with the relevance of this example. 
FWIW it wasn't HTML parsing, but a very similar
problem (needing an HTML template library), that was
the final straw in converting me from Python to Perl. 
It wasn't even a batteries-included solution, but the
simplicity of Python in the context of working with
HTML finally won me over.
