No. You just have recognize certain syntax elements in a predicate. For example, any descendant axis use in a predicate will destroy streaming with caching. > So I fail to see how using match patterns instead > of select patterns simplifies the implementation. If you use "selections" via XPath, then only "//div" will match all divs. If you use match patterns, then both "//div" and "div" will match. --Alex Milowski
