Here is a snippet of how I did it with the Sax parser a few years ago.
 At the time, minidom didn't do all I needed, but in Py > 2.1 minidom
has matured . . .

                from xml.dom.ext.reader import Sax

                dom = Sax.FromXml("<root />")
                assert dom.documentElement.tagName == 'root'
