I'm currently working on common drawing classes (visitors) for H/XSLF, which are basically taken from the XSLF classes. A side-effect is the introduction of a common interface for H/XSLF similar to H/XSSF, but up till now this will be only interface classes.
Sounds good to me! Both Yegor and myself spoke about that sort of thing at an ApacheCon several years ago, but neither of us managed to get the required $DAYJOB support to get it done. Great to hear you've managed to! :)
If I have something working, I'll create a svn branch. Although I already have a few design questions (e.g. very few api-breaks, keeping the old code, moving the base interface from scratchpad to main) I think it's still ok to discuss/change it, when the branch is created.
Interfaces in main should be fine, as long as they're sensible :) API changes, especially in scratchpad are fine (it's scratchpad for a reason!), but it's polite to pop something in the changelog / release notes about how to update end-user code for the changes.
