I had an idea on how to solve this issue with a hack (ugly hack) ... here
is that hack... I dunno if this is the right way to do it , but this sure
is one way to avoid building a DOM ... and yet store the set of attributes
for that single node in the XmlTextReader ...

This will mean that MoveToAttribute() will not require seekable readers ,
if it needs to go back ... 

The hack bypasses the XmlDocument.Create functions to allow people to just
build things ... But handle with care , the stuff should never leave the 
XmlTextReader or the entire effort bombs ...

This might break future development ... because I don't know what we're
going to do next ... So with a large grain of salt, this is a new idea :).
