There is no clear cut answer here. The perception is that COMPAT5 should be 
used for things that are very commonly used. The question is how you measure 
common. At least in this case the answer is rather obvious when you compare the 
commonality of QList or QRegExp vs the XML SAX API. 

To answer your question, yes, we could have that (and somebody needs to 
volunteer to do that) but there are lots of other API's out there which provide 
a similar service. Therefore my vote would go for "please don't"
