On the other hand, that's a fairly uncommon request. I'm not sure there'd
be enough users to justify adding it as a parser feature.
We already have a feature that allows the user to
be notified of the boundaries of entities -- built-in
and character entities. While we don't have a feature
to replace the entity with it's serialized text
(something we're also against), we do allow this much
so that people can use this information to know when
someone wrote a space (" ") versus the character entity
for a space (" "), for example.
Looking at the docs, though, it appears that these
features are not documented. Hmmm... I'll have to fix
that. But here's the features I was talking about:
http://apache.org/xml/features/scanner/notify-char-refs
http://apache.org/xml/features/scanner/notify-builtin-refs
