I hadn't read this thread then. Now I see better what you meant.

Yes. In fact, after reading the other thread, I agree that using xmlNode 
(libxml) the way you suggest if far better than what's currently done.
One other positive aspect will be that if a user want's to use some libxml2 
method we did not wrap, it will be easily doable.

I'm currently not having the time to do this, but your patches are very 
welcome. However I won't put them in the current branch but in the unstable 
one (which does not exists yet but as soon as it is needed, it will) as 
Murray said.

Best regards,

Christophe
