Jukka Zitting commented on TIKA-182:
------------------------------------
After thinking about this a bit more, I find myself reluctant to apply this
patch. Adding such a low-level extension point essentially prevents us from
changing to some other parser library that doesn't generate those low-level SAX
events. For example I wouldn't count out the possibility that at some point
we'd want to replace NekoHTML with a higher level HTML parser that better
expresses how the HTML content gets expressed to the user.
> Allow clients to listen to the raw SAX events if available
