I can see where the Dojo parsing methods *will* make life easier... but
in just quickly glancing at the dojo.xml.domUtil methods, it only looks
like slightly more convenience than doing it myself.
By the way, is there more documentation online than the API outline
(http://dojotoolkit.org/docs/apis/index.shtml)? That's not telling me a
whole lot, and I'd hate to miss something cool just because I was
looking in the wrong place :)
I've always felt that the Digester rules model, even though I have to
fight it sometimes to do what I want, is a very powerful approach that
really does save a great deal of time and effort, and I haven't seen
anything as truly useful anywhere else. I think duplicating even a
small subset of that functionality in Javascript is different enough
from existing options that it might be worth some effort.

Has any thought been given to, or has any work been done already, to
creating a Javascript-based client-side version of Digester? I'm
starting on a new project soon where I'll potentially have to be doing a
fair amount of client-side XML parsing, and it occurs to me that using
Digester would make my life A LOT easier.
It's not Digester, but you might want to take a look at dojo.xml.Parse
at http://dojotoolkit.org. They have robust XML parsing support in
there, and I'd hate to see us duplicate all that.

Even if only a subset of functionality was available, I think it would
be a nice thing to have. If this idea HASN'T been explored yet, would
there be any interest in it besides me? I could possibly roll it into
my project as a to-do and get it done.
Thanks!
