[NTG-context] xmlpos not enough for me

24 Apr 2018

      The macro \xmlpos{#1} returns the position number of the current node in its parent.
However, I would like to know the position number in its parent for the node with the same tag.
An example of what I mean:

<parent>
	<somenode></somenode >
	<node>inside it \xmlpos{#1} will return 2 but I would like 1>
	<somenode></somenode >
	<somenode></somenode >
	<node>inside it \xmlpos{#1} will return 5 but I would like 2>
</parent>

Can this be accomplished already or does it require a new API?
