Stephane,
have done a initial look at this but it fear that will not be that simple. HtmlUnit \
uses NekoHtml als Html parser (there are plans to replace this in the future...). And \
Neko requires xerces. I can remove the ElementTraversal interface from DomElement and \
then xml-apis from the classpath , the whole thing does no longer work because \
neke/xerces misses something in can't replace from the jdk. Another player in this \
game is xalan used for xpath processing.  I did some research some time ago and all \
the different JDK version including more or less old combinations of xerces/xalan. \
Based on this we decide to stay with this dependency.

But i think reducing the number of dependencies is allways a good point. If i can \
find some time i will try it again. And of course you are welcome to checkout the \
sources and provide patches inbetween....

** [feature-requests:#238] Htmlunit does not work without xml-apis**

Hello,

I am working on the Spring Boot project and I am trying to get rid of xml-apis. \
HtmlUnit brings xerces (which itself brings xm-apis). I can exclude xerces and use \
the out of the box impementation provided by the JDK.

Unfortunately, this breaks with htmlunit as DomElement extends directly from \
org.w3c.dom.ElementTraversal

Perhaps this could be improved to rely on a type that is available out of the box?
