...if you can come up with something better ;)

After this discussion I doubt there is a more "intuitive" and
"intelligent" way of doing this. At least - not for a generic XML
structure. The only reason why we might expect something else is because
we *understand* the structure we are trying "merge" or "cascade". I don't
think there can be a generic sollution for this problem.

...but hey, there is something that works - at least for the most
use-cases. And there are a couple of people beeing thankful for this
addition.

Pete, do you really give a -1 or is this more a -0?
