I reviewed this and added a comment about the only significant issue, which I 
think just boils down to trying to keep the coroutining back and forth as 
simple as possible.

Another thought: Is the scala coroutines library supported in 2.11 and 2.12 
(and 2.13 for being future-safe?)

Subject: Daffodil SAX API Proposal

I've added a proposal to add a SAX API support to Daffodil.

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DAFFODIL/Proposal%3A+SAX+API

Many libraries and applications already support SAX, so this should
provide a means for more seamless integration into different toolsuites,
opening up the places where Daffodil could be easily integrated.

SAX is also generally viewed as having a lower memory overhead, though
this does not attempt to solve the memory issues related to Daffodil and
the internal infoset representation. This essentially just adds a SAX
compatible API around our existing API. Other changes are needed to
reduce our memory overhead and truly support a streaming model.
