But DOMBuilder doesn't have an option to set your own error handler.  We
could expose that, but that's terribly ugly because it's not guaranteed
you can set a SAX error handler on a DOM parser.  Since building from
streams isn't recommended, we should choose a default and stick to it. 
Now which default?

For SAXBuilder if you don't like the behavior your can set your own
error handler.  We expose all problems by default, but you can override
that easily.
