first, computer science is 0-based :-)
i remember a lot of bugs that were caused because the code was not very clear
about if the index is 0 or 1 based and what happens if the index is 0 (eg. the
node state throws an exception if access with a index < 0).
however, "/a".equals("/a[1]") should return true (and compute the same
hashcode).
> PathElement.equals doesn't handle INDEX_UNDEFINED
