wrt. to using the new operator to create "orphaned" nodes, i dont care.
one might argue, that it makes the thing more consistent, but we've
already had a lot of fun with discussions about consistency before :)
wrt. to creating nodes without using a document's factory let me point
out the following.
with the current api i can already create a node this way:
$n = domxml_node('root');
and i've always found that very appealing; what was (is?) missing ar the
functions to create all other types of nodes this way...
i want to be able to assemble the xml pieces (docs, nodes, trees) the
way i like it and in the order i find appropriate. i dont need a
document to have some node flying around in memory, as the dom-spec
tries to tell me. i find it convenient that i can happily assemble a
whole subtree inside a function, return that subtree and have the caller
do whatever it wants with it (attach it, modify it, delete it).
