Here is where I have the problem. This leaves an awful lot up to the
application, still, including handling the proper nesting. I would like
to make the actual parsing of elements more "automatic", so when a
certain element is hit, it calls a function with my object pointer where
I can pick up the parsing from there, then drop back out to the
enclosing XML scope and keep going.

Perhaps what I want to do should be built on SAX instead of expat,
though.
