def SubElement(parent, tag, attrib={}, **extra):
Can you tell me how does "parent" issue could be solved by SubElement ?
Simply because you *have* to pass a parent to the function...
I'm looking for how to determine element parent just by asking element
it self.
There isn't a way -- and there are good reasons. One is memory management
(it would create reference cycles, and they aren't efficiently removed).
Another one is that it prevents an element to be shared between containers.
My goal is to clone an element and attach it to a specified parent or to
parant of original element to clone.
Then pass the desired parent as the "parent" argument.

Not sure what SubElement gains you, in the context of the above function?
Just because Element and SubElement are documented as the recommended way
to create Element instances. Also, I was under the impression that
makeelement did not make a copy of its "attrib" argument, so it would end
being shared by other instances too -- but it isn't the case actually.
