Potential Use Cases
http://annozilla.mozdev.org/
"My annozilla extension is a client for the W3C's Annotea server, which uses XPointers. I guess that XPointer generation/resolution would be easier with build-in XPath support." -- Matthew Wilson
 
(From the implementation bug)
"This kind of thing would be useful for
http://www.melez.com/mykzilla/2006/01/son-of-live-bookmarks.html, too.
(Oops, ok, pornzilla, too.)
Both of which only make sense if we serialize both the expression and the
namespace resolver (assuming that we need to handle XML to be future proof)." -- Alex Hecht
[http://verbosio.mozdev.org Verbosio] would be able to translate a XPath for a document it's editing into a XPath for a XUL tree (a la DOM Inspector) representing the document's structure. This would be through simple text replaces. Thus, a node found in the master document would easily translate to a XUL tree item.
