[jdom-interest] SubDocuments

[andres]

Thank you to the people who replied to the previous post.  But I guess I 
should have mentioned that clone() and detach() will not work in my case 
  because I need the element to be the same element that was taken from 
the parent Document and for that document to be intact.  Anybody know 
why this worked in b6 and, I think, b7?  Why was it possible for the 
same element to be part of 2 documents?
