  <para>
   Does the same as the update operator <literal>//</literal> except that attributes are merged until the given predicate is verified. The predicate should accept 3 arguments which are the path to reach the attribute, a part of the first attribute set and a part of the second attribute set. When the predicate is verified, the value of the first attribute set is replaced by the value of the second attribute set.
