DOMResult(Node) fails for Element when transform outputs more than one root node.

           Summary: DOMResult(Node) fails for Element when transform outputs
                    more than one root node.

            Status: NEW

        ReportedBy: joshc@plumtree.com


When using a DOMResult with an Element as the parameter a SAXException (Can't 
have more than one root on a DOM!) when the template evaluates to more than a 
single first level node. The following code/xml/xsl demonstrates the problem.
