I immediately thought about that after posting, but in reality markup is a clunky and expensive way to dictate this and it would create a lot of waste for something that would be used infrequently. An interesting idea that comes to mind is the concept of a Mobile Stylesheet / .mss file that would define elements by ID / class and dictate what those elements would represent in a mobile UI. Then you wouldn't have a bunch of needless data-mobile-intent="blah"

That does sound like a good idea, definitely preferable to keep the markup a bit cleaner. Honestly, I don't know if I care as much for a web-view based product, as Phonegap/Cordova have already been serving that purpose (at least for me), but what you've mentioned, if implemented, would definitely be something I'd use.
