Definitely. Am already planning for the xpath impl to support
everything needed by a C14N impl.

Just for clarification, is SAX-esque, not a SAX-basd xpath processor.
It's for parsing stringified xpath expressions into an event/callback
model similar to the SAX API, but pretty much unreleated to SAX.
Due to re-orderings/replacements of things in the XML stream, I don't
we can do a straight c14n filter on top of the SAX events. I think,
like XSLT, for the most part you need a fairly complete object-model.

Yah, I figure actually a C14N engine could eat a dom4j Document,
process it through the XPath engine, do some sorts and replacements,
and return the canonical dom4j Document.
