I think all the other questions have been addressed and I agree with the
conclusions from Jason and Harry.  This one is not so easy.  The problem is,
we have no way of knowing whether the original data came from a character
entity or not.  The parser doesn't report this in any way I could find. we
just get a Unicode string. 
Harry, off the top of my head, I have modified DocType, XMLOutputter,
SAXBuilder and SAXHandler.  None of this is in CVS.  I'll send you what I
have tonight and if you could do the same, we may save a few steps.  My code
seemed to work pretty well except for the issues I have brought up. 
Could you send yours?
