basic lists for holidays
Yes, I'm guessing that the interoperability here depends on using these
two specific implementations. "Architectural" was my hand-wavy way of
saying that I was wondering about a solution that was implementation
independent. 

As David Brownell points out, this could be achieved by having an
xpath-in-DOM implementation that ran on top of your DOM. That way your
xpath expressions could return live DOM nodes and you'd avoid DOM bloat.
Though I'm not sure that such a nicely de-coupled approach would be as
efficient as the messier bloatware implementations that do it all in
one?

BTW, I like the factory proposal that you recommended to Lauren Wood to
avoid spec bloat.

Thanks -

Francis.
