Dmitry Hayes commented on XALANC-532:
-------------------------------------

I'm not sure if the problem is related to UTF8: we concentrate all the encoding related code inside of the XalanUTF8(UTF16/OtherEncoding)Writers. FormatterToXMLUnicode code should be encoding independent.
I support enhance of the s_specialChars1_1 special characters table, 
but we still have some problem.
The structure "    
        	 ...
             else if (XMLVersion == XML_VERSION_1_1)
              {
                 writeXML1_1CharacterReference(ch);
              }
	...
was intendend to sure that in case we are dealing with a XML1.1 specific character , it would be printed as a charRefs for XML1.1 output. However, for XML1.0 output those characters would be just ignored. The solution is far from being perfect, but it produced well-formed XML files. 
	Right now I'm thinking about other solution: in XalanXMLSerializerBase::s_specialChars1_0 table we can mark the forbidden characters as "eForbidden" and later just check for it. In case of the forbidden character we can throw an exception.
