I was amused by that the first time I noticed that jq was ignoring
some node types while dom surfing.
But quite nice when you want to get chldren tags, and not all the
stinkin' nodes (including text , and comments)
When I realized the difference, I just thought of jq dom surfing as
'gentleman's surfing'
