Hi all,

Elements and Nodes classes don't have any method to get a java.util.Collection representation of their content. Could you please tell me the reasons why this feature wasn't implemented ?

Because it's way on the wrong side of 80/20. It's simple enough to do this yourself if you need to. I'm not going to put a method in XOM for everything anyone might ever need to do.
