Don't use QDomDocument, Qt XML is deprecated. Use QXmlStreamReader instead.

This sounds like a trivial 1to1 filter operation that just adds an attribute 
at a certain point. Doing that with QXmlStreamReader / Writer should be pretty 
straight forward.

Alternatively, why not write a simple script for this using Python e.g.? You 
could even use XSLT for this purpose. I don't quite see what you need C++ for 
here, personally.
