One mention of 'node', in a non-normative appendix using other people's terminology. That hasn't changed in more recent versions or in XML 1.1.

There may have been people thinking of nodes, but "designed for nodes" is ridiculous.

The Infoset didn't appear in even a draft until over a year later.

Asking people to prove your negatives is a good way to end a conversation, though!
