Porting over all methods of Element to ElementTree sounds like an overkill to me. How about just making a sensibly-behaving __iter__ for ElementTree? This should be easy because ElementTree already has a iter() method that behaves as needed (goes over all elements including root). Would iteration + perhaps clearer documentation solve most of the problem? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21028> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
