Yes (or if it doesn't, that's a bug). I'm pretty sure this works because 
after I implemented the type support, I didn't have to make any changes 
to the XPath code to get xml:id to work in XPath. There's a function in 
JaxenNavigator that finds elements by ID, and it just looks for all 
ID-type attributes.
