James Carman commented on LANG-359:
-----------------------------------
I agree, commons-lang does not seem like the right place for such a utility
class. The XML project has a "commons" library
(http://xml.apache.org/commons/) for stuff like this. I would recommend
suggesting it there. I think XmlUtils (I'd suggest changing the case of the
letters) is a great idea, though!

> Please add an XMLUtils class that deals with most common functions required
> in working with XML. Working directly with the w3 DOM is a PITA, and almost
> every project that needs XML, implements it's own utility classes, hence much
> repeating and code duplication.
> IMHO this (commons-lang) is the best place for such an utility cause it would
> be similar to StringUtils (used so much that everybody wishes it were part of
> the JDK :) )
> Thanks in advance,
