That sounds a good idea.
Actually, the alternative would be to have two extra protected
methods on StringElementHandlerBase: say, startChildElement
and endChildElement. By default, these just throw an exception,
but they can be over-ridden if you know what you're doing.
Same sort of idea, but avoids the extra class.
How does this sound?
