David,
Thanks for your help -- the documentation I was looking at was http://xml.apache.org/xerces-j/apiDocs/. I'll look at

http://www.saxproject.org/apidoc/org/xml/sax/ContentHandler.html
clearly documents that such behavior is allowed, so
your application code must expect it. It's also tip #2 in
http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2001/12/05/sax2.html
which uses an example that's almost identical with
the one in your question ... :)
