Re: I mean self::* doesn't select attributes :(

  Wouldn't 
      attribute::xyz:foo
  or
      @xyz:foo
  work?

yes but the real problem is that you can't negate, you can do

*[not(self::foo)] to select all elements but foo, but you can't do

@*[not(self::foo)]

well you can, but it is the same as @*.
