> When an application receives instances of ItemPSVI (i.e. ElementPSVI / 
> AttributePSVI) the scope in which they can call methods on these objects is 
> often limited (see PSVIProvider) to start and end element callbacks. If an 
> application wishes to persist the data held by an ItemPSVI beyond this scope 
> it needs to make a copy. To make it easier for users to copy these objects 
> and determine when they need to make a copy I plan on adding the following 
> methods to ItemPSVI:
>     /**
>      * Returns a reference to an immutable instance with the same data
>      * that this instance of <code>ItemPSVI</code> currently has.
>      */
>     public ItemPSVI constant();
>     
>     /** 
>      * Returns <code>true</code> if this specific instance of
>      * <code>ItemPSVI</code> is immutable, otherwise <code>false</code>.
>      */
>     public boolean isConstant();
