One additional question, please:
Preceding nodes do not include ancestors, which I've thought is odd. It includes siblings, but not parent or grand-parent, etc.
When looking at an XML file in an editor, ancestors surely seem to be preceding where I am in the document.
But perhaps "preceding" means nodes before "me" but not including anything that contains "me".
Is that a useful way to look at "preceding"?
