I have reported this as a feature request in the bug tool.
There is no reason why a "Java-centric" XML-binding framework which is not comitted to the Schema-Hype (i.e., with JiBX's unique selling points) requires every element to be mapped.
There is an escape that subnodes of unmapped elements are indeed ignored. For instance, You may have a declared but unmapped element "description" and put whatever structure You want into it.
However, this is not enough and the requested feature is trivial to implement. Dennis should just do it. I am sure that he does not want to arbitrarily restrict the usefulness of his great work.

Am I required to specify all XML elements in my binding.xml or can I just ignore the elements I don't want. E.g., I don't want 'description' element. Can I just leave it out of my binding.xml altogether? Initial tests seem to imply the answer is No.
