Guillaume Nodet commented on MNG-8490:
--------------------------------------
I'm -1 on this.
The role of an API is to decouple the contract from the implementation.
All interfaces in Maven have almost a single implementation, except a couple of
interfaces.
The Single Interface Single Implementation is only an anti-pattern in a closed
world, but the API is designed to be consumed by all plugins, extensions, etc...
> Combine XmlNode and XmlNodeImpl
