> The javadoc for eg
> org.apache.xerces.xni.XMLDocumentHandler.startEntity documents the
> baseSystemId parameter as the "base system identifier".  Now I know
> what a system identitifer and I know what a base URI is, but I have
> never heard of a "base system identifier".  At the least the javadoc
> should explain that the "baseSystemId" is the base URI applicable to
> the system identifier, i.e. the base URI of the entity containing the
> declaration of the entity being started.  I think the parameter should
> be renamed, perhaps to "systemIdBaseURI".  There's a similar problem
> with XMLLocator and XMLInputSource.
