OK - thanks for the encouragement, Erick; I'll open a JIRA then.

Yonik's law of patches states:

"A half-baked patch in Jira, with no documentation, no tests
and no backwards compatibility is better than no patch at all."

and what you've described sounds waaaay better than that!

Anyway, I doubt you'll *ever* find someone on the dev list
*complain* about opening up a JIRA on something when you're
willing to attach a patch, especially one with unit tests....

Although you might have to nudge people to follow up on it...

I work with a lot of XML data sources and have needed to implement an
analysis chain for Solr/Lucene that accepts XML. In the course of doing
that, I found I needed something very much like HTMLCharFilter, but that
does standard XML parsing (understands XML entities defined in an internal
or external DTD, for example).  So I wrote XmlCharFilter, which uses the
Woodstox XML parser (already used by Solr).  I think this could be useful
for others, and it would be nice for me if it were committed here, so I'd
like to contribute.  Should I open a JIRA for this?  Is there anybody that
can spare the time to review?  It is basically one class (plus a factory
class) and has a fairly complete set of tests.
