[jdom-interest] Test - Expanding <script> element.

[Jason Hunter]

The SAX parser pulls the DTD declared in the doctype and when an element 
has a default valued attribute, adds it to the content model.  SAX 
doesn't care if the attribute is in the .xml file or the .dtd file; it's 
treated the same.

The interesting remaining question is, does an element with 
xml:space="preserve" get expanded even if it has no text?
