I haven't tried it, but a quick scan over the code indicates that running this with a NodeFactory that returns null on startMakingElement() will cause a NPE (e.g. a XOMUtil.getNullNodeFactory()). In this case the element and its attributes and namespace declarations should be skipped, preserving the exact same semantics the Builder has.


Yep. That's a bug. It's fixed now (or at least I hope it is. I haven't yet explored all possible cases.)

Same holds for exceptions involving multiple root elements, missing root elements, etc. At least that's the guideline I've been using in all Nux build methods that take a NodeFactory.

I agree. If you notice any area where that doesn't seem to be followed, holler. I haven't tested every possible weird NodeFactory yet.
