Per section 4.4.3 of the XML specification, and per my earlier comment, 

"If a non-validating processor does not include the replacement text, it MUST inform the application that it recognized, but did not read, the entity....Browsers, for example, when encountering an external parsed entity reference, might choose to provide a visual indication of the entity's presence and retrieve it for display only on demand."

If you don't want to support entities, fine, but it is not saying to give a single point of failure (unless standalone=yes per http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#wf-entdeclared ).
