I would expect that the only reasonable way of getting a parsing library in the stdlib would be to propose an established one from PyPI to be moved into the stdlib - and that would require the active support of the library author. I can't imagine any way that I'd support a brand new parsing library getting put in the stdlib - the area is sufficiently complex, and the external alternatives too mature, to make having a new, relatively untried library in the stdlib be a good idea.
