Please remove all the configurations that you don't need. (This will
even have the effect of making XXE faster to start.)

However there are *obvious* dependencies between the configurations
found in addon/config/ (but not between xxe.jar and these configurations).

* You cannot remove addon/config/docbook/ and expect
addon/config/docbook5/ to work.

* DocBook 4 and 5 support HTML tables. Therefore the DocBook 4 and 5
configurations need addon/config/xhtml/xhtml.jar. If you remove
addon/config/xhtml/, you'll have to copy xhtml.jar to docbook/.

* DITA supports CALS tables. Therefore the DITA topic configuration
needs addon/config/docbook.jar.  If you remove addon/config/docbook/,
you'll have to copy docbook.jar to dita/.

Yes. If, after a bit of thinking about what's explained above, you have
problems after removing any of the configurations found in addon/config/
then please report these problems as bugs and we'll fix them ASAP.

This would be a bug.

Command insertCharByName with option [DocBook]
(http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/commands/insertCharByName.html)
uses its own copy of the DocBook characters entities.
