Put the following three lines in the command text, and set the  
command to input "selected text or line" and output "insert as  
snippet". It will even take care of things like <h2 class="foo">:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require ENV['TM_SUPPORT_PATH'] + "/lib/escape.rb"
print e_sn(STDIN.read).sub(/^(\s*<)([^> ]*)( [^>]*)?>/,'\\1${1:\\2}\ 
\3>').sub(/<\/([^>]*)(>\s*)$/, '</${1:\\1}\\2')
