Huh, I didn't know that. So, if you have a setup like this:
<document-list>
<value>test1.1</value>
<value>test1.2</value>
<value>test1.3</value>
<value>test1.4</value>
</document-list>
And you have an Element 'e' that represents the <document-list> element,
then e.getChildText("value") will return 'test1.1test1.2test1.3test1.4'?
That's not obvious from the getChildText javadoc. Should the javadoc be
updated?
