Description
English Translation
I would like to know roughly when Android will support XPath-based locating. From the current code, this part does not seem to be implemented yet. AI can cover many scenarios, but for complex pages some scenarios still need explicit locators such as XPath or accessibility id.
Proposed API: allow users to locate elements by XPath or accessibility id.
What problem does this feature solve?
大概什么安卓能支持xpath定位，我看下现在代码 这部分还没具体实现，因为对于复杂页面通过AI还是还能满足全部场景，有些场景还是需要自己通过xpath / accessibility id等来定位
What does the proposed API look like?
能够支持自己通过xpath / accessibility id等来定位

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing the existing Android locating entry points and current locator APIs, then compare how other platforms expose element lookup. Done would mean a defined and tested Android API for XPath and accessibility-id locating.
