PEAR::Config suggestion

Hi,

I recently started using PEAR::Config due to it's description of using
XPath like searches, but

ly found out this isn't true (for the most
part). For example, to get a path directive under 'Paths' with an
attribute name that equals 'root', I have to do the following
tomfoolery:

$directive =3D $conf->searchPath( array('Paths', array('path',
array('name' =3D> 'root'))));
echo $directive->getContent();

I think it would be nice to take some kind of XPath parser and use it
in a class that wraps Config_Container, allowing lookups like:
$directive =3D $conf->searchPath('/Paths/path[@name=3D"root"]');
echo $directive->getContent();

Thoughts?

Thanks,
JC
