When I looked at that page, I see tips, 1, 3 and 4, but no tip 2.

I had to view source to find tip 2.

Basically, though, it looks like the SAX interface assumes that
the code driving it will manage some of its state transition
context -- SAX by itself is not a complete implementation.

In the context of J, however, I think that the code which drives
SAX should deal with this issue.  This would be much better
than replicating that logic in almost every non-buggy application
which uses it.  (Especially since this kind of scalar operation
really belongs in J's primitives, and not in application specific
code.)
