Note that there's no data attribute on object anymore, the latter
example should be:

    <h><object src="/images/heading"
    type="image/png,image/gif">Heading</object></h>

So there aren't two different mechanisms, there is only one mechanism
which is the src attribute.

Use h when your content is a heading.  Use object when your content
is some sort of an object.
