Since Element is not a final class, and setParent() is not a final method, this might 
return anything, and do anything, when Element.setParent() is called.
The only way to handle this (I cann think of) is to make the method :

  void getConfig(Element config)

but this will result in encapsulating every single element in
<configelement> configuration here </configelement>, which is not really that nice.
