ok. forget it. namespace problem, just had to change the path ...

was:
"channel/item/kuler:themeItem/kuler:themeSwatches/kuler:swatch/kuler:swatchHexColor"

now:
"channel/item/themeItem/themeSwatches/swatch/swatchHexColor"

actually ... it's a bug. i think the comparison inside getChildren() should be against getFullName() which returns the element name including the namespace prefix. this allows for
more detailed "searches" / selects.

k, fixed for 0141.

i'm tempted to remove the namespace handling altogether, since it makes the
API way more confusing, and provides only minimal benefit. but let's
discuss that separately.
