Hello, can anybody explain to me why in DOM2 both public Attr setAttributeNodeNS(Attr newAttr); and public Attr setAttributeNode(Attr newAttr); exist, but only one remove method public Attr removeAttributeNode(Attr oldAttr); Also, the current DOM2 spec says that mixing simple and namespace-aware methods should be avoided and will result in unpredictable behavior. There are five methods in DOM2.Element that I would normally expect to default to the element namespace if available: public String getAttribute(String name); public void setAttribute(String name, String value); public void removeAttribute(String name); public Attr getAttributeNode(String name); public NodeList getElementsByTagName(String name); What is the reason for leaving the semantics open to the implementation instead of reusing them as convenience methods?
