 The html-parser egg supports only a few entities ( , < and
 friends) by default.  If one wants to parse html that contains other
 entities than these, one cannot use the simple html->sxml, but must use
 make-html-parser just to add entities.  I propose that for purposes of
 html->sxml, html-parser should not validate entities at all, but simply
 create sxml entity forms for whatever entities it encounters.
