I'd support it to help XPath.  It'd take some work to implement, but it
has the added benefit that then an Attribute can only be added to a
document once because you can check its parent.  Considering Attribute
has a setValue() method that's probably the right behavior.

Hmm...  What would you do with String "nodes" where a getParent() method
isn't possible?
