Jukka Zitting commented on TIKA-250:
------------------------------------
The currentSheet.isEmpty() conditional was added explicitly to avoid outputting
empty sheets. Most Excel files out there have the three default worksheets but
in the majority of cases only the first sheet contains anything and it's
cleaner if the empty extra sheets aren't included in the output.
Are there real world cases where the name of an empty sheet is an important
part of the extracted text content? I would assume that any essential sheets
contain at least some content beside the sheet name.
