> During the last couple of weeks, I worked intensely on PDFBox-based, heavy 
> PDF processing.
>  In the course of this work, we often needed to customize some behaviour of 
> the library, but we haven't been able to do this as an extension by 
> subclassing. Instead, we needed to fork the entire project, with the majority 
> of changes being the use of less restrictive access modifiers.
> As a company we would like to reduce the scope of our own modifications, so 
> it'd be great if you could adopt a somewhat less restrictive policy on 
> exposing API area. I could compile a list of the symbols we needed, but 
> perhaps it would make sense to undergo a more general review about what 
> internals could be opened as public API.
> We also implemented some other fixes, I will open separate issues to address 
> them.
