Default parser configuration

Hi,

currently if you create XML parser its default behaviour is to not=20
replace entites, to not load external DTD and to not supply attribute=20
default values. Although XML Recommendation allows very edge=20
interpretation in which such behaviour is completely conforming, in most =

cases it makes sense to specify:

LIBXML_NOENT|LIBXML_DTDLOAD|LIBXML_DTDATTR

The majority of other XML parsers (including Java JAXP, MSXML and .NET)=20
are also behaving like these three options were set.

Are there any plans to make those settings default and make XML parser=20
more easier to use? (I suppose that this change will not find it way=20
into 5.x because of backward compatibility issues, but what about v6?)
