------------------------------------------------------------------

In case we would write a PolicyFactory based on AntiSamy XSD this should rather 
be contributed to https://github.com/OWASP/java-html-sanitizer as this XML is 
not Sling-specific. There is even already an issue open for that:

>             Project: Sling
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: XSS Protection API
>            Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
>            Assignee: Radu Cotescu
>            Priority: Critical
>              Labels: gsoc2018, java, mentor
>             Fix For: XSS Protection API 2.1.0
>
>
> While looking at the extensive dependency list of the XSS module (which are 
> all caused by the embedded owasp.org artifacts), I found out that the 
> versions we use are outdated.
> So I think we should update those to the latest.
> Furthermore, the embedded antisamy library does not look to be maintained 
> anymore
> (https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Category:OWASP_AntiSamy_Project)
> instead the html sanitizer looks much fresher and claims to be faster
> https://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_Java_HTML_Sanitizer_Project
> I think we should switch. Quick analysis:
> Pros:
>     Actively maintained
>     Much faster
>     Lightweight (also from a dependency POV)
> Cons:
>     Incompatible (and runtime-object based) configuration
>     Not completely feature equivalent (but close enough and better in some 
> aspects)
> Some investigation is needed on how
> a) filter rules can be configured (e.g. sling configurations, file based, 
> code bundle, ... ?)
> b) existing configurations can be migrated
