Subj : Problems/bugs? in e4j

I've been playing with e4j and have seen a number of problems. Perhaps
it's misuse but here goes:

1) XML object not reentrant? You can't work on two XML trees in the
same function?

This won't work:

	var top = <top/>;
	top.oneDown = <oneDown/>;
	var top2 = new XML("<top2/>"); // replicates serialized XML loaded
from a file
	// now back to first top - it fails. Context lost? XML not reentrant?
	top.oneDown.stuff = <stuff>stuff</stuff>;


See first test in: http://www.the325project.org/Tests/e4j/e4jtest.xul

2) Can't assign the DOCTTYPE processing instruction?

Had to comment out the assigment because the parser barfs. Look at the
source in
http://www.the325project.org/Tests/e4j/e4jtest.xul

3) It crashes if you run it for a long time (get ready to loose your
browser)
