Minidom `Element`s require every element to be namespaced. This parser adds

`ScanElement` is a wrapper to `minidom::Element` that reimplements
|

`jabber:client` as a default namespace. It also adds a `scansion` namespace
|
`PartialEq`. Most checks will happen in there, variables in attributes will

|
also be read at this time.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`PartialEq` is only implemented for `Element` as it wouldn't make sense to
|
||||||
|
compare two `ScanElement`s.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This interface may change in the future as it doesn't allow returning a Result
|
||||||
|
(errors may happen when parsing variables: missing from context, etc.).
|
||||||
|
Currently when a referenced `client` doesn't exist in context, the comparison
|
||||||
|
fails. If no context has been specified, comparison will go on, skipping
|
||||||
|
variable handling.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`minidom::Element` requires every element to be namespaced and `ScanElement`
|
||||||
|
has no special treatment for this. Be sure to include namespaces in your
|
||||||
|
`Element`s. You may want to use `Element::from_reader_with_prefixes`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Namespaced attributes aren't yet handled by minidom so `scansion:strict`
|
||||||
|
also isn't treated in any special way.
