I agree with you that DeclHandler and LexicalHandler are not _core_ handlers,
but they are _standard_ handlers, and their behaviour should be standardized, 
even if many (most, even) applications do not wish to use them.

Anyway, nothing complex: just an itemization of events, order, and meaning.
Less of a White Paper, more of a Memo. :-)
(If I get a chance, I'll whip up a draft.)
