And... I'm still going. I keep finding things that need addressing. I am in
attributes now.

Anyway, I haven't gotten to the memory testing yet and I need to focus
tomorrow on showing my client progress, so I'm sorry but this code will be
another couple of days.

If you do look into the as2 XMLDocument stuff and find issues with
emulating that in Royale XML, feel free to ask me about anything that might
be changing (to match what swf does). Otherwise it might be easier to wait
and see if you really need some of those fixes. Once again, sorry for the
delay. I prefer to get what I get in 'right' rather than have only some of
it right.
