Details

The $x() function should allow to provide two optional parameters. One for specifying the root node against which the regular expression should be evaluated. And another one for specifying the expected result type.

Firebug already allows these parameters:

This functionality relates to the document.evaluate() parameters:

document.evaluate() also defines a third parameter for defining the namespace, which may also be added to $x().
