> the Xerces util class XMLChar does not recognize the full range of XML name start characters?
> see [https://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#NT-NameStartChar]
> I wrote a quick test and found that there were a number of characters that Xerces does not support.  Miscategorization appears to start at 0x132.  There are 936990 miscategorized characters
