Example, there are clones of SAXException, ErrorHandler and EntityResolver ... which seem to add no value over the original interfaces. And the SAX-specific classes strip out most of the DTD information, as well as precluding "higher level" events (interfaces reporting "widget" objects, and so forth), so they discard the high-fidelity infoset reporting of SAX. - Dave
