Re: element() scheme should return Element Node only or any kind of node?

So, your metafallbacktestwithxpointer.xml test case is okay, but 
metafallbacktest5.xml is wrong.
The differnce between these two (or by href attr) is one has 
<xi:fallback>fallback text</xi:fallback>, another one has 
<xi:fallback><test>some data</test></xi:fallback> Your element(/1/1) 
returns "fallback text" string and <test>some data</test> element 
respectively.
I don't know what you meant by "catalog". I downloaded test suite from 
http://www.w3.org/XML/Test/XInclude/ (110032004 version).

Thanks,
