Thanks to Leigh and Michael for this excellent subthread,
I do agree that there is a problem with API complexity.
DOM is a nice API but rather big and complex for certain
applications and results in rather verbose code. Having
a 'limited subset' spec/guide would certainly help in
defining a simpler DOM (SDOM if you will).
SAX is simple but it is difficult to use in applications
where access to yet-to-come elements and character data is
needed. Getting around this problem complicates the XML
application.
Best,
