Re: Should we include the XML prolog in the XPath datamodel, o

Hello,
From my point of view, the prolog is just useful for parsing :
- version="1.0" : just in case another version would exist in the
future (multiple roots, multiple relationships,...)
- encoding="..." : so the parser can interpret correctly and
convert the following characters !
DOM is just concerned by the document in memory where just one encoding
is used (UTF-32 for example).
XPath expressions are written as strings which could use a different
encoding...
The result tree of DOM API calls or of XSL transformations is usually
saved or transfered : another encoding is necessary so the prolog has
to be written when serializing.

Hi all,
I wrote the following blog post. This is perhaps a weird thought,
for people having worked with XML for long.
http://mukulgandhi.blogspot.com/2008/09/should-we-include-version10-in-xpath.html
This is a short description of the points I have in mind.
Could you please let us know, if my logic have any merit.
