  Well in general when people have errors in XML files they might
be interested in knowing about it. It's the default behaviour, 
also note that the default behaviour logs the error messages.
The progressive parser is not different in this respect than the
non-progressive one. The errors are logged as they are found, not
batched until the end of the resource is detected.
