  That might be a sign that you should use parameters instead?  But I
agree, having a static XPath error when dereferencing an option which
has simply not been specified is rather extreme...  On the other hand,
if a default value is acceptable to you, then just use one (remember
though that options are strings, so use '' instead of ()).
