--- Comment #2 from woody <[email protected]>  2009-01-22 10:33:09 PST ---
due to the fact that there are multiple implementers of ExcelExtractor and
duplicating them and the factory logic makes it difficult to incorporate
subsequent bug fixes and/or enhancements in the extractor code lines, it's not
a great move to dupe them simply to get this minor addition, at least from my
perspective (focused as it is).

i wrote the logic into the extractors, and augmented the EventBasedExtractor to
implement the ExcelExtractor interface as well. Cleaned up some stringbuffer
code and aligned some constants that were (somewhat) dangerously defined. This
is in the following patch.

i would appreciate your review:
