Posted my understanding of this into that Jira entry. If anyone has doubts, checking with the DOM WG rather than taking my word for it would be perfectly reasonable.
I didn't close the issue because I'm no longer part of the core Xerces development team, so it shouldn't be my call. The Xerces DOM has mutated a lot since I contributed the original code... ______________________________________ "...
