[jdom-interest] possible bug in removeContent()

[Richard Cook]

in B7:

import org.jdom.*;

public class RemoveTest {
  RemoveTest() {
    Element e1 = new Element("fred");
    Document d = new Document(e1);
    Element e2 = new Element("jim");
    e1.addContent("t1");
    e1.addContent(e2);
    e1.addContent("t2");
    e1.removeContent(e2);
    java.util.Iterator it = e1.getContent().iterator();
    while (it.hasNext()) {
      System.out.println("..." + it.next());
    }
  }
  public static void main(String [] args) { new RemoveTest(); }

}

prints:

...t1
...t2

Should the consecutive text nodes be merged as per xml spec like when you do
addContent(), ie should the output be "...t1t2"

But that only removes all child Elements.  It doesn't remove CDATA, PI, etc.
