I'm not actually concerned about whether I have to recompile my code to work
with a new JDOM. What I really do care about, however, is that once I have
done so, the code should work regardless which version of JDOM my users have
installed. I don't want 1% of those 100,000 users calling me to say Saxon
doesn't work with JDOM any more...

The DOM incompatibilities introduced in Java 5 caused me no end of grief,
and I downgraded the level of support for DOM as a direct result. I wouldn't
like to see JDOM suffer the same fate.
