You're right that the current 1.1 API is a mess. I'd go to a simple
constructor that only specifies the OutputStream, and then have methods
to set various features and properties: setExclusiveMode(boolean b),
getExclusiveMode(), setCommentsMode(boolean b), getCommentsMode(),
setAlgorithm(String algorithm), getAlgorithm().


I like this idea. However, I'm a little restricted by the fact that Canonicalizer(OutputStream out, boolean withComments) is already part of the 1.0 API. In hindsight, I should have had one constructor and used a setter method for withComments as you suggest.
