I guess the main question if whether minidom wants to adhere to the standard or
be pythonic, and it's not up to me to decide, although personally I like
standards.
The common use case for DOM functions returning the relevant nodes is for the
caller to chain calls, e.g.,
e1.setAttributeNode(e0.removeAttributeNode(e0.getAttributeNode("a")))
instead of
a=e0.getAttributeNode("foo")
e0.removeAttributeNode(a)
e1.setAttributeNode(a)
