I agree, this is a good point, though you can generate a parser with JavaCC,
which emits very detailed debug messages about the parse progress. this has been
very helpful to me debugging a parser. But again, I agree being able to debug
the actual parser class is more convenient.

A very important point in my opinion! I learned a lot of Jackrabbits
internals by debugging.
