I agree, and also the complexity of context-sensitive languages is highly over-rated, I'm utterly confused as to why there are so few implementations and so far in between. anyways even considering it may be pspace-complete, so is tic-tac-toe and a bunch of simple games.
Rpoku is highly context sensitive, but it's fairly easy to implement, maybe not overnight, but within a week the basic parsing is implementable.
