Curious why not use AS3 instead?
I don't speak for the OT here, just a comment to your earlier comment
that AS3 made XPath obsolete. This is not really true.
It is true that with E4X you have almost the same functionality as
XPath, but E4X fails badly if your query comes from an external
source, like if your application needs to deal with arbitrary XML and
the queries are dynamic in nature (for example provided by a user, etc).
Curious about this: like using eXist or doing interactive queries?
In my particular case it's about rendering XForms, which relies a great
deal on XPath for data binding (E4X can't help me there)
