<rant>It's easy to say that as a core developer with commit rights who can 
simply hide changes in a low frequented bug tracker without notifying those who 
have to know about these changes.</rant> It's pure luck I noticed this change 
during the alpha release cycle.

I'm also not arguing about naming. I'm questioning the design, trying to get it 
into a shape that fits the existing APIs. Why do we need two incremental 
parsing interfaces in one and the same library that use completely different 
method names, although doing otherwise exactly the same? Why should the type of 
the *result* of the parsing process change the method name that you need to 
call to *insert* data into the parser?
