Yep and removeChildren(name,namespace) removes only one level down. I think
the more common case would be to remove all matching elements below the
context element. To me this one and getChild* are ripe for removal.

At one time it was need, but now since ContentList is always created it's
not.

hasChildren is ripe for removal IMHO :)
