    Now that I think about it, you could actually do the following:
    * Provide a `configurationChanged` method in `MessageParser` with a default 
noop implementation
    * Change the argument to `parseOptionally` to take a Config and in the 
default implementation of `parseOptionally` call `configurationChanged` upon 
configuration change.  
    
    This would leave `parse` alone and provide the capability to reconfigure on 
configuration changes seamlessly to parsers going forward.
