Subj : referring to the "context node" in XML filtering predicate with E4X

E4X section 11.2.4 describes the XML filtering predicate operator. In 
the predicate I would like to call a method of the XML object the 
filtering predicate is applied to e.g.
   xmlObject..*.(nodeKind() == 'text')
however both Rhino and Spidermonkey then tell me that nodeKind is not 
defined. Is there any way to call a method in the predicate or is the 
predicate only able to access non function properties (i.e. the child 
elements by name or the attributes by @attributename)?
