I personally don’t think anything more needs to be done for a proof of concept 
(except maybe proving that performance actually is solvable).

But what’s the actual proposal here? Even if everyone agrees that this is a 
nifty idea, there’s nothing to accept until someone writes an 
acceptable-performance stdlib-ready parser library, the drop-in replacements 
for the critical bespoke parsing functions, and the tests that verify that they 
avoid known security problems but otherwise provide the same behavior.
