IMHO all DTDs should be removed from any xml before it's parsed by xerces.
i don't have unmetered internet and so i can't parse an xml document using
xerces without editing the DOCTYPE :-(
but in general, i don't like the thought of trying to download an xml DTD from
an URL everytime i parse an xml document.
not only is it a big performance hit but is an unneccessary source of runtime
errors.
