I could see this being useful as a tool to help us get
some wider test coverage for the DOM. My caveats for using
this as the main parser itself include:
- performance
- configuration options - whether or not we are able to skip
inclusions and do a best effort quick-parse
- the error handling strategy, as quite often we are going to
be parsing working copies while the user is typing for
the outline view and code assist.
That being said, I will try it out and give it a fair and impartial
trial. :-)
