XML::LibXML - Mixing XPath with a document fragment

Hi,

I have an XML document that was generated with document fragments by
an external function. This gave me some struggle because I was trying
to use an XPath expression to access some nodes and couldn't reach
them. This is due to the fact that even though the document fragment
seems transparent it's still in the document and brakes the
parent/child/sibling relation ship. This makes it a difficult to use
XPath to search for nodes.

Is there a way to clean document of all document fragments besides
$xml = XML::LibXML->new()->parse_string($xml->toString()); ?
Should document fragments be avoided?

For the curious, I have attached a test case that shows the problems I
had parsing the document.
