Depends what you define the role of a "visitor" to be. If you define
it to require some kind of explicit data model for _all_ the document
data, that's true; it'd be the antithesis of SAX. On the other hand, I
think of SAX callbacks as the interface a visitor must implement.

Anyone deleting declarations deserves what they get ... :)
