------------------------------------
I have the same confusion, anyone who can explain this?
> Configuration class can throw exceptions in quiet mode; quiet mode usage
> unclear

> if (doc == null && root == null) {
> if (quiet)
> return;
> throw new RuntimeException(name + " not found");
> }
> Unclear why a diagnostic mode would throw an exception, while normally off it
> would not.
> It's also not clear why 'quiet' is being passed around as well. Why not use
> logging levels and logging configuration and remove 'quiet' mode altogether?
