Granted -- my suggestion was just to skip all internal entities for consistency. <warning target="everyone" level="severe"> I am not willing to let this issue hold up SAX2, because I do not believe that it is important enough (a minor point for an optional add-on handler that few sane users should care about). </warning> That means that when SAX2/Java goes to final (there'll be at least one more beta first), it may have a broken LexicalHandler or even no LexicalHandler if necessary. It may also be that the optional handlers simply don't get bundled in the main SAX2 distribution. > so some other rename would be needed to address such issues. > {start,end}ContentEntity maybe? Obviously, there are a few people who feel strongly. Maybe we should spin off the optional handlers as a separate distribution and put someone else in charge of it. Any volunteers?
