Maybe https://github.com/HtmlUnit/htmlunit-neko is of help here.
This

@rbri I would like to encourage you to make a pull request which allows using the neko-htmlunit html parser in Flying Saucer, in a default way without any hassle configuration, because this html parser is clearly better than the current xml sax parser.
