Well I wouldn't consider a reference in a properties file a 'hard-coded' reference. You can easily override this by putting a copy of the properties file earlier in the class path with what ever reference you want.
Shouldn't the default SAX Parser be used?
When this was implemented JAXP didn't really exist. To date no one with the 'itch' as submitted a patch to enable the use of JAXP. Some care should be taken to be backwards compatible, at least to a degree.
