> Brat SpanAnnotations with empty covered text

> The class BratDocument's static parseDocument generated SpanAnnotations with
> empty covered text… I think that is a little messy. was this done in order to
> save memory? Otherwise I think you should rewrite the getCoveredText so it
> looks like opennlp.util.Span's CharSequence Span.getCoveredText(CharSequence
> text)
> included a patch that compiles on current trunk.
> We could also fix SpanAnnotationParser to read the "covered" text but I think
> I should look more like the opennlp api.
