I guess I should have some sleep ;)

In this case this should not be a problem as JDOM is still in beta stage 
developers are aware of possible API changes (unless there has been an 
API freeze?). But maybe using the Node interface would have other 
consequences? I mean it's important to care about existing code, but in 
my opinion such a good change as this Node interface is worth some minor 
code breaks.

What do you (not only Laurent ;) think ?
