JDOMResult has the following field:
public final static String JDOM_FEATURE =
"http://org.jdom.transform.JDOMResult/feature";
JDOMSource has:
public final static String JDOM_FEATURE =
"http://org.jdom.transform.JDOMSource/feature";
Five years of teaching people about namespaces has made me extremely
leary of using any string that starts with "http://" and isn't
resolvable. I suggest we change the features strings to something like
these:
public final static String JDOM_FEATURE =
"http://www.jdom.org/org.jdom.transform.JDOMResult/feature";
public final static String JDOM_FEATURE =
"http://www.jdom.org/org.jdom.transform.JDOMSource/feature";
and then put a page there.
Alternately, we could make them something that clearlyisn't a URL such
as "org.jdom.transform.JDOMResult/feature" and
"org.jdom.transform.JDOMSource/feature". However, an unresolvable URL
will confuse people.
