Hello,

I am trying to build an user-friendly way of populating IDREFS  
attributes which would:
1) select through an XPath function the relevant targets (subset of  
ids to avoid scrolling the full list);
2) display in a pop-up relevant information to allow the choice, i.e.  
(calculated) content of elements rather than ids;
3) allow multiple selection.

"set-attribute-button" (http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/ 
csssupport/ch05s29.html) is restricted to the whole list of ids and  
doesn't allow multiple selection (which makes it awkward to use with  
IDREFS)
? Is there a workaround there ?
? Could multiple selection ability for set-attribute-button be added  
to the wish-list ?

"list" (http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/csssupport/ 
ch05s24.html) seems the best way to achieve what I wish but I can't  
find a way to build labels and values with the actual coverage of  
XPath 1.0.
? Any idea to convert a node set into the \A separated strings "list"  
manages ?

XPath 2.0 seems to offer a whole lot of facilities to enhance the  
already very convenient support XXE provides (the "if" feature is  
really an useful extension:-)).
? Do you consider covering more features of XPath 2.0 in future  
releases?
function "for $x in" would be useful together with "string- 
join" (http://www.w3.org/TR/xquery-operators/#func-string-join)...

Thanks again for the excellent product et support!
