My dom.d in loose mode is able to read ddoc's output. Here's a 
skeleton program you can use to get started:

---

import arsd.dom;

import std.file;
import std.stdio;

string hyphenateText(string input) {
         return input; // FIXME: implement algorithm here
}

void doHyphenation(Element element) {
         if(element.hasClass("donthyphenate"))
                 return;
         if(element.tagName == "script")
                 return;
         // you might filter other things too

         if(auto tn = cast(TextNode) element) {
                 tn.contents = hyphenateText(tn.contents);
         } else {
                 foreach(child; element.childNodes)
                         doHyphenation(child);
         }
}

void main() {
         auto document = new Document();
         document.enableAddingSpecialTagsToDom();
         // FIXME: pass a different html filename here
         document.parseUtf8(readText("intro.html"), false, false);

         doHyphenation(document.mainBody);

         writeln(document);
}

dom.d is available here:

just download the single file, no need for anything else, it has 
no dependencies

also available on dub:
