Since you asked, here is one of my previous patches that has not been 
incorporated or commented on:
Note that i can't do this external to DOMConverter because 
DOMConverter.convert(Node) is not public.

[Patch] DOMConverter DocumentFragment conversion

> DOMConverter currently cannot deal with a DOM DocumentFragment.
>
> Unfortunately I get handed such a DocumentFragment from the apache 
> xmlbeans framework's XMLTokenSource.newDomNode(). So need to deal with 
> it one way or another. Please consider the patch below that implements 
> one way of handling it.
>
> One might also think of making convert(Node) and convert(NodeList) 
> public but that's a separate issue.
