Given my background in real-time, embedded, systems, I'd like to see us
improving performance, and doing a lot less movement of data.  So I'm in
favor of changes that reduce data movement.

Here's a question for the lot of you: is this similar to DOM vs SAX, and if
so, can we come up with a StAX solution?  Just go with the analogy, but the
issue is a best of both worlds.
