In principle I am in favor of the patch.

Would it be better to use some more unlikely name for the dummy root
element used to process fragments than <x> ?

Perhaps even something in a special namespace?


I did think about it, but I didn't find any difficulties with simple
<x>...</x>. The thing is that regardless the element name we have
corresponding shift in XPath epression -- so, there cannot be any
problem from my point of view... But maybe I don't see something and
it's better to avoid _possible_ problem. It depends on PostgreSQL code
style itself -- what is the best approach in such cases? To avoid
unknown possible difficulties or to be clear?


If you are sure that it won't cause a problem then I think it's ok to leave it, as long as there is a comment in the code that says why we are sure it's ok.

cheers
