Do you mean always normalize CDATA or normalize CDATA in the absense of a 
LexicalHandler?  I agree with the first case, but prefer Lars' second 
option (lexical interpretation of normalization) in the second case. By 
requesting normalize, the application has asked for a single call to 
character() between other calls. By registering a LexicalHandler, the 
application has stated it is still interested in lexical events.
