And I think you both didn't get what I was proposing: ok, consider this
pseudocode:

 1) I want to open an XML file, what do I do? oh, yeah, ask for a
component with the role 'parser'

 2) ask the parser to parse my document

 3) the parser will trigger SAX events for me on the content handler I
pass to it.

Now, suppose your XML file looks like

 <?xml version="1.0"?>
 <blah>
  ....
 </blah>

all is normal.

But suppose I have this file compiled into something like this

 CXMLSDSE4blahST3....ED

Now, suppose that I changed the implementation of the parser so that is
capable of understanding that if it's a *normal* XML file, it should
behave as the specification says, but if it starts with CXML (which
stands for "compiled XML", yeah my invention) it should use a parsing
behavior that is implemented in the 'XML decompiler' (which is already
implemented and used by the internal cocoon cache system).

So, you don't have to touch *anything* in your sitemap, nor in your
code, nor in your logic, nothing.

just change the role to the new *extended* parser.

Don't you just love Avalon? :)
