Feature request: heading tag, link tag, content placement

Thanks for making this plugin available! I’d like to make a request which I hope you might consider in the future.

It would be great for SEO and semantic markup if the .adamrob_parallax_posttitle element were not a div element but rather a heading tag. Perhaps:

<h3 class="adamrob_parallax_posttitle section-title">

That part seems pretty obvious and straight-forward. That element is clearly a title, and carries some significance. It should be a heading.

Carrying this idea further, it would be great to have the option to wrap the text in the .adamrob_parallax_posttitle in a link (<a>) tag. (That would be more difficult, I know.)

One more request: it would be great if there were an option to display the “content” of the parallax section below the image with the scrolling background, instead of within the scrolling background area, but still within the <section> element.

Often we use a parallax background image behind the heading of a section, and then display the text of that section below the image. We then stack these sections running down the page. In order to get that effect with this plugin, we need to alternate your “sections” containing the “heading” only, with other divs or sections containing the text which the “heading” relates to. In terms of semantic markup, that is a mess.

Here is how that option should be structured, IMHO:

<section>
<h3>Title of the section with a scrolling image background behind the title text</h3>
<p>Content of the section, displayed below the image.</p>
</section>

To achieve that now using your plugin I must have this, much more confusing, structure:

<section>
<h3>Title of the section with a scrolling image background behind the title text</h3>
</section>
<p>Content that <em>should</em> be part of the preceeding section but isn't, semantically speaking. Visually it is text displayed below the "heading" image.</p>

What do you think of these ideas?
