Christopher,

Any chance of changing the slonik functions to have a default EVENT NODE of 
<ORIGIN NODE> instead of 1?  I think this plus the ability to DEFINE aliases 
would take care of all these issues.  Perhaps we should make the DEFINE more 
prominent in the docs.  I suppose also making EVENT NODE required instead of 
optional could help with that as well.
