Running the xml and code in this Stack Overflow question through the most recent version of elementpath results in both folder elements being selected, while the actual answer should be only the first folder.

Hi, it's related with the path step operator that fails to select /visits/doctor/@id attributes because the position is on patient. I will produce a patch for this after some checks.

Root selection was always problematic bacause the document position is managed with a None when context.root is an Element instead of an ElementTree instance. I have to decide to maintain this solution or if to wrap Element root into a new ElementTree instance at context initialization, maybe using an option.
