[jdom-interest] setExpandEntities and XMLOutputter behaviour

[Manish Sharan]

Ok so this is how I solved it :
  document.getDocType().setInternalSubset(null) ;

This preserves  the original xhtml doctype declaration and cleans out the
DTDs.

Even though this is working for me , I can see that the issue remains :
shouldnt  document.getDocType().getIternalSubset() return only the
internal DTD ?  It seems that when setExpandEntities(false) is set,
somehow the external DTDs also end up in internal subset which means the
when you output using XMLOutputter, all the content from the external DTDs
get included in the output

Is this a bug or a expected behaviour ?
