I think he is makin subclasses of JDOM with an
event model.

Doing this requiers one to catch changes done to the lists
returned by for example Element.getMixedContent()
witch means overiding the List metods of Partial/FilterList.

pseudocode:

Public class EventList extends FilterList
{
         add(Object obj)
         {
                 super.add(obj)
                 //dispatch events
                 ....
         }

         // rest of metods
         ...
}
