14  * <p>
15  * <code>FlyweightEntity</code> is a Flyweight pattern implementation of a
16  * singly linked, read-only XML entity.
17  * </p>
18  *
19  * <p>
20  * This node could be shared across documents and elements though it does not
21  * support the parent relationship.
22  * </p>
23  *
24  * <p>
25  * Often this node needs to be created and then the text content added later
26  * (for example in SAX) so this implementation allows a call to {@link#setText}
27  * providing the entity has no text already.
