This object represents an entity from a EntityReference objects.
While the entity name is stored in the Entity nodes will always be null.
Entity objects are read-only and cannot be modified once they are added to the document or after a document is
loaded. If you need to change an entity's contents you should create a new one and change all the
EntityReference nodes that referred to the old entity to refer to the new one instead.
