Would we just swap to throwing an Exception if a parser can't be found /

Y, that'd be my inclination.
Seems ok to me
what do we do if someone gives us a Tika Config
that references a Parser that doesn't exist?
My preference would be to throw early and often. I don't want
problems to be hidden. What do you think?
The only possible problem case I can see is a user with a heavily
customised Tika Config, with eg lots of PDF and OCR options set, who for
ease of config management wants to be able to use the same config on their
"full-fat" and "skinny" Tika deployments. We could help them by giving an
option, but then we're almost back to a load error handler...
