Research direction

Start by locating the internal XML parser and the public elementtree module, then trace how custom entities are currently handled internally. Determine the public API needed to expose add_entity and check existing parser tests or examples for the expected usage. Done means custom entities can be registered through elementtree rather than only through internal functionality.
