Ok, it was quick :) According to [1] and [2], the two expressions "/1/2"
and
"xpointer(/1/2)" are *not* the same! While the first one is a correct
shorthand
form, the second one (full form) does select a different node set.
The equvivalent full form for "/1/2" would be "xpointer(/*[1]/*[2])".
You can find
an example with some explanations in [3].
