I am afraid I do not know anything about JSR-173, but I am a user of the Xerces pull parser, and I like the very simple parse-some API offered.

The event parser that you developed is an extreme and custom case. While that can always be implemented where needed, the average user would get more benefit from a generalized API.

I like the push model (and the SAX implementation) very
much but at the same time I understand the annoyance of
having to split my logic across multiple callback methods
and the need to buffer text content. So an efficient
model that provides me a convenient way to navigate and
access document data is extremely useful. And that's
what I had hoped would come out of the JSR-173 work...
