It took me some time to figure out the path abbreviation rules, both
   as an user and as an implementor. It might be just because of my
   XPath knowledge, but I wonder if it would have been better if it
   were just another axis with convenient syntax, like maybe
   "/r:purchaseOrder/-/r:regions" instead of
   "/r:purchaseOrder/r:regions".
