I have two questions about the low level design decisions make during 
the coding of iText.

1) Why the are two different types of low level PDF objects? 
PRObject vs. PDFObject, etc.

2) Why are both these sets of objects private to their package, 
thereby disallowing "low level" access to applications?


I ask these as I am in the process of extending the reading, parsing 
and manipulating capabilities of the library - but these particular 
restrictions are a major roadblock, since it prevents object-level 
access to the application.

And if there isn't any good reason - would one of the maintainers be 
willing to commit the changes to make these objects public?


Thanks in advance,
Leonard
