I allowed myself a half hour over lunch last week to look around at
parser generators for JavaScript. Yeah, parsing external entities is a
bit of effort, but it’s not enormously complicated (though if you bring
in parameter entities, it’s more complicated than you might guess).

But you’d want the whole thing to be streaming on NodeJS and that’s
something I’m still getting my head around.

A correct XML parser in JavaScript would be nice to have, though.
