Namespace support is the most likely problem.
Pathnames can contain ":" but you cannot access them without using [] or
eval as follows:
Xobj = MyXML.toObject()
//this will fail as : is illegal in path
Xobj.foaf:knows.foaf:Person.foaf:nick._value
//this will work as strings are evaled at each object node
Xobj['foaf:knows']['foaf:Person']['foaf:nick']._value
Within an object you can use any character as a name, but you must set and
get the value as follows:
//set operation
myObj['@#$@#$@#$!@#$)*#@)($@#$'] = 1234
/get operation
trace(myObj['@#$@#$@#$!@#$)*#@)($@#$'])
