From c8f406d1b3e53aafdf549c93f3eeb44910c7f580 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Lance Stout <lstout@kestrel.cs.clemson.edu>
Date: Tue, 24 Aug 2010 09:37:42 -0400
Subject: Updated ElementBase._setSubText and added unit tests.

_setSubText can now handle elements specified by an XPath expression, and
will build up the element tree as needed, reusing an existing elements in
the path.
