The proposed DOM Level 3 load/save API included a filtering mechanism, last
time I looked at it. I don't know whether that's been implemented.

If not, the simplest answer is to set up a SAX filter which has this
effect, run a SAX parser into that, and run the filter's output into a
SAX-to-DOM builder. (Or apply that same concept at the XNI level; less
portable but more efficient, and you might be able to reuse some of the the
existing XNI components.)
