Yes, the DOM API is quite a minimal subset of the full W3C spec. Your best bet is to file bugs against the parts that you want, or, better yet, submit some patches! We'd love to see contributions in this area. In the future we are looking at sharing the webkit implementations of these constructs, which obviously support the entire spec, but that is not scheduled for any particular release. > 1.

Future releases of QML will included better model data support that will hopefully help with this problem. > 2.

The attached example uses XMLHttpRequest from a worker script and it seems to be able to access responseXML without issue. Can you provide more details about your problem - like the specific release of Qt you are using and, ideally, a self contained example of the problem? Cheers, Aaron
