Porting over all methods of Element to ElementTree sounds like an overkill
to me. How about just making a sensibly-behaving __iter__ for ElementTree?
This should be easy because ElementTree already has a iter() method that
behaves as needed (goes over all elements including root). Would iteration
+ perhaps clearer documentation solve most of the problem? |
