Yes. That could actually be the cleanest/most intuitive solution - compared
to XMLDecl handler that would always report encoding and version
(something like Jeff Rafter suggested). Maybe startDocument should pass
the label (i.e. encoding="some") if present (labels would have the highest
priority - otherwise bom specified or default encoding - but always some
values, no NULLs) and same for startEntity. Maybe the byte order
info should be there too.

Back to reality ;-) , I guess changing startDocument signature wouldn't be to
everyone's liking.
