a plead

I know that we are past the freeze date for PHP_4_2_0 but I hope that you can find an exception for this case. Recently the DOM XML interface has received a great deal of attention from the developers and for this reason has moved much closer to completeness. After doing a fair amount of testing on it I have found it to be very stable and quite reliable. The version that is going to "ship" with 4.2.0 is more or less complete for the average user. However, there is one major hole that I just don't see how you can allow to slip past. Up until about 3 days ago, the function remove_attribute() had not yet been implemented. From what I can tell, it was simply overlooked and of all the functions that are still not implemented, it is by far the most important, since it blocks a very fundamental usage of the module, one surely everyone using it will need. It is currently implemented but missed the 4_2_0 branch. On top of that argument, I just finished and submitted an entire PEAR interface to act as a frontend for the DOM XML/XPATH module and this one missing function is going to put off the usefullness of it for yet another release. Please find it in your programming hearts to allow remove_attribute() to make it into 4_2_0. Thanks, Dan Allen
