I have come to understand in the course of this thread that the original 
point was about a bug rather than a feature   Thanks for the clarification.

What about the assertion that the some extra setup is needed to parse 
entities?  Is that my misunderstanding of the "bug" or a "feature"?

But once again, I don't want to tie my argument here to what MS does or 
does not do, nor to malign them by association with a position that is 
obviously unpopular!
