 What you are describing is a "data model", not an "object model". Joshua, On what date did the data model you refer to become a standard? I would tend to use a future conditional .... "XML may have *another* useful ....". And I suspect that some might want to debate the parsing of "another useful". :) Of course, the XQuery 1.0 / XPath 2.0 data model doesn't quite express all of an XML document / chunk of data. I guess it aimed not for the 80/20 point but the 95/5 or 98/2 point. Not covering quite all of XML is acceptable, I think, but in parallel it does have some limitations - but it's probably fit for purpose. No, I don't expect that the XQuery / XPath 2.0 data model will fall at CR/PR stage. Imagine if it did get voted down. That would go right off the Richter scale. :) Like you I expect both the serialization syntax and the XQuery / XPath 2.0 data model (with all its blemishes) to be long standing sources of benefit / activity / irritation / permathreads on this list and elsewhere.
