[lxml-dev] Avoiding re-parsing for document loading

[Laurence Rowe]

Sadly this doesn't work:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "blocks.py", line 72, in ?
   output = render(page_path, layout_path, tile_path)
 File "blocks.py", line 59, in render
   layout_transform = XSLT(compiler(layout))
 File "xslt.pxi", line 505, in lxml.etree.XSLT.__call__
(src/lxml/lxml.etree.c:103335)
 File "lxml.etree.pyx", line 227, in
lxml.etree._ExceptionContext._raise_if_stored
(src/lxml/lxml.etree.c:6442)
 File "xslt.pxi", line 90, in lxml.etree._xslt_resolve_from_python
(src/lxml/lxml.etree.c:99907)
TypeError: Cannot convert lxml.etree._ElementTree to lxml.etree._InputDocument


I have to use one of return_{filename|file|string|empty} which means
serializing the document and reparsing.
