memory management for attributes

[Gareth Reakes <ga...@decisionsoft.com>]

Hi,
	I'm sorting memory management for the XPath node in Pathan2 and 
thought I'd model the attribute way of doing things. I want to confirm 
what I have found out as it seems a touch strange. When you remove and 
element and then release it it deletes all of its children but does not 
delete the attribute nodes. The attribute nodes are still owned by the 
deleted element and so it is not possible to delete them using 
release. Also, it is not possible to remove the node so you can delete it 
because the parent element has gone.
	Is this desired behaviour?

Gareth
