Marcel Reutegger commented on JCR-740:
--------------------------------------

Well, the problem with the current implementation is how the path is stored in 
the abstract query tree. Because it uses a Path instance in RelationQueryNode 
other axis than child are not possible currently. The correct solution is 
probably to replace the Path with a full fledged PathQueryNode. Anything else 
is rather a hack.

> For example,
> I want to find the root of a node tree that contains a node with a specified 
> id. The child node may be n layers deep in the node tree. In my specific 
> case, I know how deep it is so
> //element(*, my:foo)[bar/*/*/*/*/@jcr:uuid = 'abc']
> finds the node of type my:foo that contains the child node with id 'abc'.
> Now, I would like to generalize this so I thought i could simply do the 
> following.
> //element(*, my:foo)[bar//*/@jcr:uuid = 'abc']
> but this does not work.
