This adds a method to an API that was originally developed by the SAX 
project. Can you summarize the relationship to that project? Is that 
project dead and the API subsumed by Java SE? Just asking as I don't 
recall API additions being done here (I remember the work in JDK-8152912 
to deprecate XMLReaderFactory but I don't recall any additional or 
removals).
