If you just use the JAXP API, the JBoss code should work with
both. The only notable omission from JAXP is a standard way to write out
XML files from a Document, but you could encapsulate that and have it
detect the current parser and do the right thing. Then a user can use
whatever parser they prefer for their application, and JBoss shouldn't
care. Ain't standards great? :)
