== Why is this an issue?
With the advent of .NET Framework 2.0, certain practices and types have become obsolete.
In particular, exceptions should now extend `System.Exception` instead of `System.ApplicationException`. Similarly, generic collections should be used instead of the older, non-generic, ones. Finally when creating an XML view, you should not extend `System.Xml.XmlDocument`.
This rule raises an issue when an externally visible type extends one of these types:

* https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.xml.xmldocument[System.Xml.XmlDocument]
