Stop right now! :) This "streaming subset of XPath" is turning into a
permathread. There is one, it's called STXPath and it's part of STX:
http://stx.sourceforge.net/documents/spec-stx-20040701.html#stxpath
I'm sure somebody could take it and make it available standalone if
that was desired, for example by engineering out the required section
from one of the open source STX engines.
