Comment (by spacedmonkey):

 The biggest issue with extracting data from blocks, is attributes that are
 css selectors for html tags contents or attributes. Image blocks are the
 prefect example, as src and alt attributes are stored in the html.

 In my plugin, I used a library called pQuery, as a way to use css
 selectors in PHP. Whatever goes into core, may want to use a different
 approach.
