This does not look very usual to have a boolean property starting with is or are.
Usually, the getters are written isXxx but the field is most often named without the is/are prefix.
I would propose to invert it and name it enforceMandatoryElements and default it to false.

I can rename but the default should be to enforce mandatory elements. The POM case is really an unusual edge case IMHO

I may have missed something, but the current default value is true for not enforcing mandatory elements. I'm fine with changing the default value though.

The javadoc should be changed accordingly if the default value is to be changed.

Sorry, my bad. I will think again about defaults.

Lets start with the default being no enforcement for backwards-compatibility.
leave out negation
This closes #162
