True.

Having worked with a lot of DOM representations (recursive searches for
elements, etc), I think the one I picked for the libxml2 thing really is
the most pleasant (and fast) to work with.  :-)  But that would be my
opinion, wouldn't it?

There's very little if-ing necessary.  It's all very regular.  If the
cdr of anything is a list, you can descend into it, and everything
does have a cdr -- there are no atoms sprinkled here and there that you
have to special-case all over the place...
