Better error handling in XML

Ave,

this patch improves handling of xml documents. here's what happens:
- many xml documents contain html elements for which we have defined 
behavior. Example of that is "p". Now on the web we have a lot of 
standards non-conforming documents which enclose block elements in p. 
Example of that is code like "<body>...<p><ul>...</ul></p>...</body>". 
And there's quite a few pages doing that. One of many examples 
includes:
http://www.mozilla.org/docs/dom/samples/treewalkerdemo.xml
As you can see that site isn't rendering at all currently. 
This patch makes it render fine.

All we do is we try to attach the new node not only to the node it's 
enclosed within, but also to it's parent (which means that in the 
example above ul would be a child of body). For all xml documents I've 
seen that was enough to get it to render correctly.
