Have you considered xpath? It's a core feature of all xml engines (msxml,
libxml2, whatever else).

In my wrapper would look like this:
Person := Document.FindNode('//Person[@Index = "0001"]');
Other examples
// All persons in a city that start with the letter A
Document.FindNodes('//Person[starts-with(City, "A")]');
// Or to processing save time, select the Persons node
People := Document.FindNode('//Persons');
// And now xpath is evaluated relative to that
People.FindNode('Person[Name = "Jan"]');
And so on
Free Pascal comes with the XPath unit, which implements the XPath spec.
It does not drag in anything except the dom unit.
