I am accessing the DOM tree of the collections in the embedded mode.

Now, I need to process the DOM node returned by a query.

For this, Item.toJava() returns a DOM Element (for my specific case/query).

When calling Element#getAttributes(), I only get "direct" attributes, i.e. no namespace declarations are included in the list of attributes.

Are the namespace declarations omitted intentionally?

How can I make the BXElem also report them in the resulting attributes list?

Thanks.
