in some sense, it already is: See the TypeDecoder class.

However, my vision would indeed be a mapping between element names
(like "i4" or "struct") and SAX ContentHandlers (parsing) or SAX

I believe to understand your wish. My personal vision would be to get
something quite similar with the help of JAXB. Similar things could be
done dynamically with BeTwixt or Digester (both from the Jakarta
