Point granted... but I still think of an XPath generator as a general 
utility rather than as being a great fit for the Xalan project.

(There's been discussion of adding an XPath generator to some future 
version of the DOM APIs, to match the DOM3 XPath evaluation API currenty 
being developed... but that's still strictly a wishlist item as far as I 
know.)
