Ideally, I would expect multiple levels to it. The lowest one probably 
wouldn't even be a SAX parser (something closer to StAX probably), and then 
SAX and DOM parsers could be built on top of that. Then you can get the 
absolute best speed possible out of it depending on what your requirements 
are, and we give people the choice between SAX and DOM (as well as the lower-
level API if they really want raw speed and don't need the higher level 
features of either SAX or DOM).
