Code:

for navpoint in root.xpath('//{namespace}navPoint'):
   if test_navpoint_for_removal(navpoint):
      p = navpoint.getparent()
      p.remove(navpoint)
      for child in reversed(navpoint):
         p.insert(idx, child)

You'll have to do a bit of monkeying with the text/tail of various elements to preserve indentation, but that's about it.
