This particular need will be taken care of by KDOM out of the box, due to that 
DOM 3 Core supplies this feature. I will probably look at it at /some point/, 
due to it being close to my work(XQuery/XSL-T). I think it will be 
implemented by a dictionary in DocumentImpl, mapping 'NodeImpl *' to 
DOMLocator instances.

So, Quanta doesn't need to implement at what file, line, and column a certain 
node occurs. However, you still need an extension mechanism for your other 
stuff, of course.
