For the moment, the DTM is not updatable. It is really tedious for
authoring systems. In fact it is really a pity that xalan does not
support DOM directly for input document. It is necessary to pass by an
intermediate DTM structure (DOM2DTM) that is difficult to update. Do you
envisage to provide functions in order to update DTM, or to have a
direct support of DOM during the evaluation of XPATH expressions ?  Or
maybe it could be interesting to propose several implementations of
XPATH, one for the DTM and the other for DOM?  

Thanks you
