The current code will flatten the sequence once to handle cases like [:div ([:span "a"][:span "b"][:span "c"])]. Even that I'm not a huge fan of but there's too many cases of things like
[:ul (for [e elem] [:li e])]
If you want to do something like this example you should wrap it in a div tag I think.
I don't agree with that view. I strongly dislike the idea of introducing new tags without a good reason. How my data is constructed is not a good reason.
The use case I have is when you have chunks of tags that you want to reuse in various places, something like:
(def some-stuff (list of tags))
(def some-more-stuff some-stuff + new tag on end))
I have a choice, either I do
(def some-more-stuff (concat some-stuff [[:new tag]]))
or, I just build it up as lists and allow these to be flattened when rendering.
Personally, I prefer the latter. because I don't want to create temporary one element vectors and then concatenate them to lists.
It's up to you - at the end of the day, I have no other justification than: I use this capability, it is useful to me; It may be to others; as far as I can see there is no detrimental effect and it may be faster than the mapcat special case you use now.
If you prefer not to include this - please feel free to close the pull request.
+1 I encountered the same issue when porting code from crate to dommy (a select element with a default option tag with a sequence from a map call next to it). It also allows to use array like objects that are sequential (like say a jquery object/collection from jayq) directly, which is also something crate supports.
Ok. I do think I want to support this. I like append-children and want to do something like that. Some of the other things in the commit I'm not so sure about: I don't see why js/Array.prototype.slice is wrong, nor do I think there's a point to unchecked-node rather than call the protocol directly, or the throw- fn, but these are stylistic.
Can you either give me a new pull request with just append-children or I Can just take your commit and make the stylistic changes

Yep, I will give you an updated pull request if you like.
js/Array.prototype.slice was "wrong" only because of this : https://groups.google.com/d/topic/clojure/rtmPtmpo4qA/discussion
http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJS-455
So I was seeing warning in my build. but it looks like this position may be reversed.
Cool, I'll get that merged today then.

Also, if you could add a test case it would be much appreciated :)

I'll get it to you today. I didn't get time yesterday.
Please advise if the following change is of interest to you:
Modified to allow the following:
[:parent-tag {...} (([:tag1] [:tag2]) [:tag3])]
to be equivalent to
[:parent-tag {...} [:tag1] [:tag2] [:tag3]]
This is useful when building up data from various functions where you don't want to wrap children in [:div] or flatten/concatenate lists at each stage. This is consistent with behaviour in crate and hiccup. Effectively seqs (not vectors) are looked-through for elements that can be rendered.
I added this because, when I tried dommy, I already had code that failed without it.
Timing for me indicates that this may be faster than the special case with mapcat in the current version. Please verify for yourselves.
