Hi all,

I was wondering if there was an easy way to search a repository for all 
nodes of a specific type, including subtypes? For example, the xpath 
query:

//[EMAIL PROTECTED]:primaryType='my:nodeType']

will match all nodes with the exact type 'my:nodetype', but not nodes with 
types that inherit from it. I guess what I'd like to see is an "is" 
function that works like the "instanceof" function in Java:

//*[is(my:nodeType)]

I've read the JSR-170 spec and checked out some of the xpath query code, 
but couldn't find support for something like this. I feel like I'm missing 
something obvious though...

Cheers,
