Minor note: On the other hand pluggable parsers might be useful for testing. If no other parsers were pluggable, one could not easily find out to what extent they work (or do not work), or if they become fixed at some point in the future. You wouldn't have found out that they have problems if they weren't easily pluggable, right?

They're pluggable at the source code level. That's what I've been using to test the other parsers. To make XOM pick another parser instead of Xerces you need to either pass it in as an XMLReader or edit the array of avaialble parsers, and the latter is what I've been doing anyway.
