DocumentType nodes are read-only in DOM thus cannot be built on the fly.
Also notice that not all components, such as ATTLIST, even have a node type.

setIDAttribute - thats on the TODO list. Were some previous libxml
issues to be resolved before that could be implemented (so it will be
added, but require a minimum libxml2 version to work).
Can always use xml:id attributes for that purpose for now though.
