Would it make sense then for one of \DOMDocument and DOM\XMLDocument to extend the other, then? So that, eg, we can type against DOM\XMLDocument and then support both old and new classes? Or are the construction et al differences enough that is not viable? > Similarly, the constants would lose their DOM_ prefix in the namespace > version, e.g. DOM\INDEX_SIZE_ERR will be an alias for DOM_INDEX_SIZE_ERR. For > constants that begin with XML_ I propose to keep the prefix. Unclear to me: Would the XML constants also be aliased into the namespace verbatim, or left globally? Did you consider making the new classes throw exceptions rather than forcing people to remember to call another "was there an error" global function like it's still 1996? :-) Otherwise looks good to me.
