Read MNG-4140. We had a solution much like you mention (it used string
searches, not DOM searches, but amounts to the same thine...the
<version> element is context-sensitive).
So, what is an adequate reason in your eyes for moving to 1.5?

in [1].
If I understand the issue correctly, then it is about finding
<version>.*</version> in a DOM tree. That's easily possible without
XPath (see below).
Don't get me wrong: I am not refusing 1.5 as a dependency at all. I'm
just refusing it for the reasons you mention.
