Interesting - thank you.

Here's some code which had to solve a similar problem - it's intended to
generate a repeatable (same doc but different runs or different
processors) ID for any node in the XPath data model.

Replace the literal '+' characters with '/' characters and it should do
XPaths instead, though I haven't tested it!

Hope this helps!

Francis.
