Julian Reschke commented on JCR-4935:
-------------------------------------
Document view is by definition a "best-effort" mapping to XML, so it's known to
be lossy. The question here is whether it's better to fail early, or export
incorrect data. There is no simple answer here.
> session.exportDocumentView() generates unparsable XML if a JCR Property
> contains invalid XML character

> I came across this issue in AEM, where user content can contain all kinds of
> special characters. In my case it was a 0x3 character (^C) in a node property
> which was written in the JCR XML as-is, and it resulted in a unparsable
> output.

> IMO control characters, non-characters and out-of-unicode-range characters
> should be skipped when writing XML. These can come from user data and can act
> as a "poison pill" breaking the export/import functionality.
>
> The PR is coming.
