XOM API for Processing XML with Java

[Elliotte Harold <elharo AT metalab.unc.edu>]

You know, I was about to say "Not going to happen as long as Java allows 
type-erasure", but now that I think about it for 30 seconds, does that 
matter? I could expose Iterable<Node> without actually compromising 
XOM's type-safety. What do people think?

I'm still not convinced this is a good idea. For one thing I expect 
people would be surprised by just what an Element iterated over, no 
matter what I picked.

Also it would tie XOM to Java 5, and I'm not quite ready to do that yet. 
 If I do this it would probably be in 1.3.
