Since SAX2 implementation was introduced before my time, I am not quite sure
why this was missed.   By looking at its API, I guess there is no technical
reason why it couldn't be implemented ...

I think it was just missed since it is not reported in Bugzilla.   It is
recommended to log any patch or bug in Bugzilla to avoid getting lost in the
mailing list.   I have just reviewed his patch, looks ok, but one more thing
to consider is how to create such XMLFilter.   Should we provide a factory
method (like XMLReaderFactory::createXMLReader()) or let user to new
XMLFilterImpl directly?   Memory management is something to think about.

Although theoretically a committer for one sub-project automatically got
permission to access other projects, it is not recommended to abuse such
rights.   As each subproject can be quite different, it's better to get
involved with the sub-project and the mailing list first, submit patch and
got reputation before assuming the committer status.    Even Xerces-J and
Xerces-C++ are very close, they are still two quite different projects.
But volunteer effort to review or submit patch is very welcome and
appreciated.

Just my two cents.

Thanks!

Tinny
