As I said before, there are opportunities to make redesign code faster and smaller. To compare the two, we need to see the things that are unique to the pull parsing approach. And more important than that, faster and smaller will not trump cleaner and more flexible (at least for me). > Note that I am quite happy to work towards integrating a fully-working > FO and area tree susbsystem into the redesign.

OK, this all-or-nothing approach is news to me. So Glen actually better understood how matters stood on this issue than I did.
