Thank you for the patch. I have merged it in, but with the following 
modifications:
1) Preservation of CDATA sections is disabled by default, as most of the time 
you don't really care whether parsed character data originally contained &, < 
or other pseudoentities to escape special characters or if those special 
characters were guarded within a CDATA section.
2) #addCDATASection: has not been added. I really don't want a proliferation of 
#add* methods in XMLElement or XMLNodeWithElements for every node type. 
#addContent: is special, as it accepts a node or a string, and #addElement; was 
once needed for the special handling element nodes required but is no longer 
needed. #addNode: should be preferred.
3) The messages added to XMLDOMParser were renamed to #isInCDataSection, 
#preservesCDataSections, and #preservesCDataSections: to make it clearer that 
they take or return boolean values.

Here is an example that demonstrates parsing with CDATA section preservation:
doc := (XMLDOMParser on: '')
 preservesCDataSections: true;
 parseDocument.
doc root firstNode
When evaluated with cmd-p, it produces:
