I encountered a case when using the editor and the input window, pasting some XML content with &

The & entity is replaced by its character in the input window (&) which is then fed as is to the XML parser that raises an error. Unfortunately DOMDataSource believe it is handing a normal XML document whereas it is a document instead (at least on FF).

Such situations should signal the error to the user.
