Lots...one project I worked on, we used XML as the native file format and dom4j trees as the object
model. In other words, when you saved a document, you got an XML file;
XML, XPath, XML Schema all have basic tutorials at www.w3schools.org
Out of curiosity, how does a node function in a DOM? I'm not very good
at manipulating DOM's, I can do the basics, mainly by passing object
IDs to JS functions, which feels like cheating.

AFAIK, you make up your own tags, and then parse them and display
them, and anyone else could create data using your tags.
