All,

Here are a few method signatures that I would recommend for the dom4j API.

    1. Node.fooSelectNode(s)( String xpath, Map namespaces );

    2. Node.insertBefore() and Node.insertAfter().

    3. Node.next(), Node.prior().

I think that (1) will go a long way to making it simpler to use namespace
contexts with dom4j, something that has been a source of a lot of confusion.

(2) and (3) provide a convenient shorthand for an operations that are
otherwise
somewhat ungainly, but which are never the less quite common needs.

Thanks,

-bryan
