You can just call toDOM() if you want to get a pointer to the root of the
object's DOM, then you can insert it wherever you like. No need to serialize
and parse over and over.

You should have a Document prebuilt and pass that into the method to insure
that it creates the tree in the right context.

You can look at SAMLSOAPBinding itself to see how I do this.
