[jdom-interest] Why don't Comment, Element, Text, etc extend common jdom object?

[J S]

This would be helpful in the following situation:

List l = rootTitle.getContent();
Iterator it = l.iterator();
			
Vector titleChildren = new Vector();
while(it.hasNext() )  {
   JdomObject e = (JdomObject) it.next();
   e.detach();
   titleChildren.add(e);
}

Also calling e.detach seems to throw a concurrent
modification exception.  Anyone understand why?  To
get around that I interate through my new list of
objects afterwards, which works fine.

Thanks,

Jo
