Summary: dom.Node.nodeValue not populated

Initial Comment:
I get the following behaviour:

>>> xmlStr = "<foo id='10'>test</foo>"
>>> from xml.dom.ext.reader import Sax2
>>> import xml.dom
>>> reader = Sax2.Reader()
>>> dom = reader.fromString(xmlStr)
>>> dom.getElementsByTagName('foo')[0].getAttribute('id')
u'10'
>>> dom.getElementsByTagName('foo')[0].nodeValue
>>>

which seems to be a bug. Perhaps my understanding of
the nodeValue attribute is wrong. Im running 2.3.3 on
Fedora Core 1

er... sorry, this form stripped the tags from xmlStr, it was:

>>> xmlStr = "<foo id='10'>test</foo>"

if the form strips html special chars then:

>>> xmlStr = "(foo id='10')test(/foo)" #replace ( and ) with
angle brackets
