I was just highlighting the fact that XNI may be extended in
the future by adding "extension" packages for doing various
things related to or optimized for the XNI framework. As an
example, I used a "native" tree API. However, I don't have
any ideas or plans at the moment for inventing such a thing;
there's plenty of work remaining for the XNI Core and Parser
Configuration framework.

There are a lot of various tree APIs around. The most common
one being the W3C DOM, of course. But other examples would 
be DOM4J which is an alternative, Java-only tree API; and
even Xalan has their own internal tree model which they 
call DTM. And there could still be others.

Of course, if we were to work on a general tree model as 
an XNI extension, then the goals I would have are: to be
complete in terms of the document infoset; have high-
performance in creation, access, and memory-usage; and
be easily extendable. Not an easy task, that's for sure
which is probably why there are so many different tree
models out there.

Do you have a link to this Tree API for XML you were 
referring to?
