What I did was to provide a *thin* wrapper around the internal C strucs used by libxml2, so every dom manipulation call can be delegated down to libxml2. For example xpath lookup: I call libxml2's xpath API, returning me a C structure (possibly) holding a node set, i.e. a list of C nodes. I just need to map these C structs back to my C++ wrapper objects and I'm done with it. (Luckily for me, libxml2 provides all the hooks to make that lookup very efficient...)
One problem would be the licence
libxml2 is a Gnu project isn't it?
that means it's under the Gnu licence which is far more restrictive than the boost licence
But as to doing a nice wrapper of some sort it sounds like a good idea
