[jdom-interest] Toward beta 9

[Bradley S. Huffman]

Yep, we just haven't figured out how to deal with that yet. One option
is to have a special factory in org.jdom so it could have access to the
protected methods in the core classes (do a search of the archives for
FastFactory in the message body).  The problem, at least IMHO, is it would
have to be public so SAXBuilder/SAXHandler (org.jdom.input) could use it.
Which wouldn't be a problem except it gives people the ability to skip
the verifications when building by hand, which they'll do in the name
of efficiency, and consequently end up asking the list for help when their
code screws up.

But I'm one of those in the "protect me from myself" crowd :-)
