Coming back to original issue...
The summary of this is:
1. In Firefox, XPath query like ```//textarea[value="John Jones"]``` returns
nothing.
2. But you can get value of element with ```$x('//textarea')[0].value```.
3. Executing Selenium getAttribute atom for value also returns it.
```ruby
b.driver.instance_variable_get(:@bridge).getElementAttribute
e.instance_variable_get(:@id), 'value'
#=> "John Jones"
```
That's awkward, because I suppose XPath engine in Firefox should be able to
search element with value since it's accessible. @jarib I'm not that good with
Selenium, maybe there is some magic in atoms? What do you think?
