Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported XPath expression on xsoup 0.3.1 and trace how the parser handles the and operator, especially the resulting span .info-name null :parent:root output. Done means the expression is parsed and evaluated as intended, with coverage for this reported case if the repository provides a suitable test location.
