It uses a dom: namespace to do so, with dom:document dom:element dom:attribute dom:text This is used to display warning messages in their context, and to distinguish significant changes/differences from ignorable ones. That of course is only a partial DOM (it's just what this particular tool needs).

AFAICS This is actually straightforward, and doesn't need us to address the kind of ambiguity we had with "fuzzy pointers" (that issue arises at the next level of structure up). If noone picks this up, I might write up something. But that's unlikely to be anytime soon. -- Nick Kew Application Development with Apache - the Apache Modules Book http://www.apachetutor.org/
