Not to mention it really doesn't have a way to do
that, in general (as in it'd have to locate referenced
DTD, resolve it, parse, combine with internal dtd
subset if any; most of which is not done by JDOM when
parsing but outsourced to a sax-parser).

Does anyone know of xml processing package that does
allow validation of the output? I have been thinking
of writing such functionality into Woodstox, as it
would seem potentially useful, but absence (?) of
others doing that makes me wonder if it would be truly
needed.
