Then XPath is useless in the real world?  Is there no way to wildcard it?

I am trying to use XPath to select nodes from a real document that has multiple
namespaces that are beyond my control.  I am not transforming the document, and
if I have to transform it and add prefixes, I might as well just walk the DOM..

I am not writing a stylesheet.  I just want to use, for example,

XPathAPI
(doc, "//SMARTDOC/SIGNATURES/Signature/SignedInfo/CanonicalizationMethod/@Algori
thm")

instead of

((((Element(getElementsBy(item(0)))...firstChild..ugly...

I am only trying to select a node, and I have to transform it to add prefixes 
for multiple namespaces?  I don't get it.
