Regarding the ID resolution issue: something similar came up on the dev list
recently.  If it really needs to work without schema validation, I think the
only option (short of implementing your own ID resolver, and it's not even clear
how that would work) is for the calling code to first pre-process the DOM
Document using knowledge of the content model, and find and mark/register the
ID's so they can be resolved.

If you want to assume DOM Level 3 support then the Attr nodes can be marked as
an ID type with the Element#setID* methods.  (This is what we do in OpenSAML
when we marshall to and unmarshall from the DOM model to our object provider 
model.)

If not, then you could register them manually with the Apache xmlsec library's
IDResolver.  In org.apache.xml.security.utils.IdResolver, see:
IdResolver#registerElementById(Element, Attr)
IdResolver#registerElementById(Element, String)

Either way, you probably want to use the Apache IDResolver in your code here,
since it just delegates to Document#getElementById anyway:

// plain ID reference.
  if (i==0 && !parts[i].startsWith(XP_OPEN))
  {
     node = this.baseNode.getOwnerDocument().getElementById(parts[i]);
  }

If you're saying the javax.xml.xpath.XPath engine is hardcoded to use
Document#getElementByID internally, and doesn't have any way to modify how ID
resolution works (e.g. ID resolver plugin, etc), then I guess you're stuck with
marking the Attr nodes as ID types (and limited to DOM Level 3 environments).
