[Bug 4872] SML shouldn't reference xpointer

xpath1 and xpath2 schemes are not W3C recommendations. The element() scheme is
a W3C recommendation but it is difficult to use and fragile since it uses
numeric child sequences. E.g., 

element(/1/2)

However, it is expressive enough to represent SML references since they always
point to a unique element in a doc
