Summary: Access to DOM Element attributes using __getitem__

Initial Comment:
Element objects in XML DOM implementations in Python
should provide access to their attributes in a standard
Python way, using __getitem__. Thus, the following code
to print the version of an XMI document should work:

  import xml.dom.minidom
  print
xml.dom.minidom.parse(filename).documentElement['xmi.version']

At first blush, this seems reasonble.  Fred, what do you 
think?
