Yah, found alternate approaches, but this would still be my
favorite solution.

+1.

I'd actually like CDATA to be a flag on Text.  This isn't related
to XPath at all, just a personal preference.  I'd like to be able
to possibly walk a document, and turn certain elements into CDATA,
and turn other elements from CDATA  to normal escaped-entity elements.

Not having to construct/replace would make that simpler.

But, this isn't too much of a concern really.
