------------------------------------------------------------
I concur with Ken, if I understand this correctly, we can't do anything at the
Tika level to prevent this from happening. I also agree with Phil [0], though,
that we should probably catch and log this in POI rather than preventing the
extraction from the entire document. Mind opening an issue in POI's bugzilla
and add a link to this issue? I'll see what I can do...prob won't be until
early next week, and then we'll have to wait for the next version of POI before
we'll see different behavior in Tika.
-Or, has this already been fixed in POI [1]? If so, we'll be updating soon
(TIKA-1799) once the transfer to git has finished.-
