                 Key: SHRINKDESC-45
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SHRINKDESC-45
             Project: ShrinkWrap Descriptors
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: api
    Affects Versions: 0.1.5

XMLImporter should probably be public, and provide a few convenience methods to build an ad-hoc Node graph.

XMLImporter.asNodes(InputStream stream);
XMLImporter.asNodes(String xml);
XMLImporter.asNodes(byte[] xml);

This would make Descriptors useful as a pure XML manipulation library, and provide a nice path to entry for new users. A nice appealing feature to get people to use it in their projects.
