Kinda sorta useful

Yes, it does show the results of my XPath queries, but all it really does for me is highlight the matching entries which in a big document is not very useful. Honestly I could just run XPath on the command line and get more useful output, so why did I pay for this? So its a good start, but needs better viewing features.

What would make this a killer app for XPath, IMO, is some combination of the following, in order of importance:

* At the least, a left-hand "match here" highlight as is done in any modern browser, that allows the user to see the location matches across the length of the document by looking at the scroll bar
* As a better option, a "results" overview panel (maybe across the bottom) when executing a query, which can show the matching elements in real time and jump to them by clicking, and more importantly, save the results to an output file!
* Direct opening of XML files from the File menu
* Opening multiple files in/below a directory (e.g. a whole source tree with lots of XMLs, which I frequently need)
* A "find/find next" option inside of or instead of the "results" panel, especially when opening multiple files

If the above were implemented, not only would this app be much more useful, but Id be willing to pay more for it, too!
