-----------------------------------------

I don't see how this is useful, there are many flaws that we swallow, not just this one.

> When utilizing PDFBox in a security strict environment it can be useful to enforce a stricter parsing mode. While this is not appropriate in all contexts for some use cases - e.g. watermarked PDFs it is essential that the PDF is rendered without errors.
>  
> This patch offers the ability to configure a system property which will always throw an exception when an operatorException is triggered
> Patch attached
