I'm glad I could help a bit with this test... Some "warnings" though :
- it is quite a high level unit test as I don't know the low level JDOM 
API to test....
- it does not test the boundary condition (invalid surrogate pair) which 
Dave's properly checked in his code.
- it does not perform regression testing on other basic character set 
such as ASCII, ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8, but I suppose you already have valid 
unit tests on this..

Also note that the issue you were raising a year ago regarding the 
method signature change introduced by Dave's patch is still there... You 
may wan't to have a deeper look at this if you don't want to break 
people's code in your next release.

Regards,
Olivier.
