seeking a validator

A reader asked me if I knew of any software that would let you take an
arbitrary SAX stream or DOM tree and validate it against a DTD (heck,
multiple DTDs) of the application's choosing, without relying on the
DOCTYPE declaration.

Please note that this is not simply a validating parser - it requires
letting the application choose the DTD, probably after the document has
gone through a non-validating parser.

Anything out there?  I haven't seen it for DTDs.
