+Summary: the id() function is not supported in current xpath implementation
+
+Description of Problem:
+
+In XPath, the id() function should return a node with a specific id, set 
+in the DTD. In mono this function is not implemented.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+
+1. Use this XML file:
+
+<!DOCTYPE USS[
+	<!ELEMENT USS (Entity*)> 
+	<!ELEMENT Entity (Reference*, Attribute*)> 
+	<!ELEMENT Reference EMPTY>
+	<!ELEMENT Attribute (#PCDATA)>
+	<!ATTLIST Entity 
+		Type CDATA #REQUIRED
+		Id ID #REQUIRED
+		>
+	<!ATTLIST Reference 
+		Role CDATA #REQUIRED
+		RefId IDREF #REQUIRED
+	>
+	<!ATTLIST Attribute 
+		Type CDATA #REQUIRED
+		Name CDATA #REQUIRED
+	>
+]>
+<USS>
+  <Entity Type="Person" Id="ea5cc780-5b45-47a3-9b43-e035cc75b5de">
+    <Attribute Name="Firstname" Type="System.String">Sébastien</Attribute>
+  </Entity>
+</USS>
+
+2. Execute this request in XPath:
+
+XmlNode node = xDoc.SelectNodes("id('ea5cc780-5b45-47a3-9b43-
+e035cc75b5de'");
+
+
+4. Another test can also be found here:
+http://javaalmanac.com/egs/org.w3c.dom/xpath_GetElemById.html?l=new
+
+Actual Results:
+The node is null
+
+Expected Results:
+node should not be null and be the corresponding XmlElement.
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Allways
+
+Additional Information:
+In the XML norm, the id should begin with a letter.
