Aye, I hear you. I think it wouldn't be horrendously hard to do though. I mean 
creating the scaffold of the page isn't too bad, and then its just a matter 
of outputting the same code XSP generates now every time it encounters 
content in the page. I bet if 4 or 5 of us attacked it we could get it to 
work in a few weeks. The only question would be taglib compatibility, I'm 
betting that existing taglibs would need some patches, mostly to 
TaglibHelper/SimpleTaglib. 

I never really honestly thought much of the SAX approach. In THEORY its nice, 
but once I sat down and considered the logic required to do it, it got scary 
fast! It would have to be a pretty elaborate stack-based state-machine.
