Package javax.xml.transform.dom
 The DOMSource class allows the
 client of the implementation of this API to specify a DOM
 Node as the source of the input tree. The model of
 how the Transformer deals with the DOM tree in terms of mismatches with the
 XSLT data model or
 other data models is beyond the scope of this document. Any of the nodes
 derived from Node are legal input.
 
 The DOMResult class allows
 a Node to be specified to which result DOM nodes will
 be appended. If an output node is not specified, the transformer will use
 DocumentBuilder.newDocument() to create an
 output Document node. If a node is specified, it
 should be one of the following: Document,
 Element, or
 DocumentFragment. Specification of any other node
 type is implementation dependent and undefined by this API. If the result is a
 Document, the output of the transformation must have
 a single element root to set as the document element.
 
 The DOMLocator node may be passed
 to TransformerException objects, and
 retrieved by trying to cast the result of the
 TransformerException.getLocator() method.
 The implementation has no responsibility to use a DOMLocator instead of a
 SourceLocator (though line numbers and the
 like do not make much sense for a DOM), so the result of getLocator must always
 be tested with an instanceof.
