Description
Currently, if we want to discard HTML elements by attribute value/existence, an example from one of our projects
<div data-meta-no-index>Some content to be ignored by custom search indexer (Tika parser)</div>
it's required to implement a custom handler with logic very similar to what we have in org.apache.tika.parser.html.HtmlHandler. While it can be easily done by keep using HtmlHandler, but setting an instance of HtmlMapper with (newly added) isDiscardElement(String name, Attributes attributes) method overridden into the ParseContext.
