  Log:
  Allow a nodeset to be returned as the result of xpath evaluation


Before this change, I had a template which contained something like 
the following:

<jx:forEach select="#{/docs}">
  #{.}
</jx:forEach>
What is the type of #{/docs} i.e. what does  #{getClass(/docs)} output?

What is the  type of #{.}i.e.what does #{getClass(.)}output?

What were the types of these objects before the change?

where "docs" was passed from flowscript as an array of DOM objects. 
The template serialized all the DOMs. Now, it does not work anymore.


What happens instead?

After a few trials and errors, I was able to make it work again by 
changing it to:

<jx:forEach select="#{/docs}">
  #{*}
</jx:forEach>
Is this an expected side-effect of the change? Can you explain why the 
former version does not work anymore?

No it is not.  But I can't explain it until you provide more information.
