[jdom-interest] Why PI are outputed after the root element?

[Jason Hunter]

This is a frequently asked question.  Since you added the PIs after the
root (since the root was added in the document constructor) the PIs are
placed after the root.  Use doc.setMixedContent() if you want to have
full control over placement.
