    Not XPath, but for folks interested in querying (rather than walking) syntax trees for arbitrary nodes, this is also a cool feature of tree-sitter[1]. It uses a scheme-like syntax, and it’s impressively efficient.

    And in terms of XPath, for folks using a JS stack, fontoxpath[2] supports a DOM facade adapter interface which allows for querying any arbitrary tree-like structure, so it could certainly handle the same use case.
