I don't think is is possible to do an inclusion of an element with the
exception of a particular child or descendant of that element.
Note that the specification of XPointer's xpointer() scheme
(http://www.w3.org/TR/xptr-xpointer/) never advanced further than Working
Draft, and it is not well supported. libxml2 is probably the only software
library that attempts to implement it.
