SV: [jdom-interest] Line numbers

[Jason Hunter]

It's an idea that's been thrown out periodically.  You can see in the 
TODO.txt a reference to this ides and a URL to a post from October 2000. 
  The problem is it increases the required memory by 4 bytes per element 
and probably slows the build somewhat.  Is it worth it?  Perhaps to 
some, perhaps not to others.  We've used this feature as an example of 
what someone should be able to add to JDOM using inheritance if JDOM's 
designed well.
