I thought the XMLListCollection was just an view of the original XMLList>XML object. If that's true, childIndex() should always refer to the child's position relative to the original parent, as parent() refers to the original parent in an XMLList even when the parent is no longer part of the XMLList. Or have I misunderstood what collections do? Is there some other kind of collection that preserves all the original XML information?
