I've read through the javadoc/spec changes.

One comment is that there is a lot of repetition. The syntax of the 
property value is defined in no less than 9 places. At least for the 
setAttribute methods, then couldn't these just reference the properties 
in XMLConstants?

One suggestion for

"Default value: implementations shall decide whether to restrict 
connection by default ...." and the options list.

is to replace it with:

"The default value is implementation specific and therefore not 
specified. Implementations are highly recommend to restrict external 
connections by default when FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING is set to true."


For ACCESS_EXTERNAL_DTD then this statement isn't clear:

"Restrict access to external DTDs, external Entity References to the 
protocols specified."

Should "external Entity References" be dropped here, or "," replaced 
with "and"?

-Alan.
