If I'm not understanding and doing anything wrong, 'following' does not help in this case. It gets all elements until the end of the document without regarding the hierarchy. That is, on the Matrix quotes page, if you use //b/a/../following-sibling::text() it will give you all quotes without the notes but if you use //b/a/../following::text() it will give you all quotes with the notes but also all the text on the page after the last quote. I doubt if 'following' and 'preceding' will be useful in any of our cases. But if we ever need them supporting them in beautifulsoup does not seem hard.
