Input Elements and Wrapping Tags

I'm a huge fan of the ability in the latest release to add params under Input elements BUT....

I found I still need to use HTML input elements that I manually create because of tag wrapping.  For instance, the input element outputs <span><input/></span>.  Is there a way to instruct Logi to not bury elements inside tags? 

I vaguely recall there was a hack at one time to use something like nowrap when using the old Include HTML element, but not sure that was ever officially documented.

  Use a Definition Modifier or put it in your theme modifier.  Something like this...
  
  <DefinitionModifier>
      <SetAttribute XPath=".//IncludeHtml" NoWrap="True" />
      <SetAttribute XPath=".//Label" NoWrap="True" />
  </DefinitionModifier>

  Thanks for the syntax.  I gave this a try with the InputText element and didn't see a change.  I find that interesting because per the debug logs I see the snippet below.  Ideas?

  Modifier File: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Bootstrap5\_SupportFiles\AppModifier.xml
  
    XPath = //InputText
      SetAttribute
        NoWrap = True

  Hmmm... doesn't seem to work with Input elements anymore for some reason.
  
  jQuery can unwrap it with a single selector but runs browser-side.

  $('textarea, input').unwrap();
