Which point made you think that?

Facts:

- the whole parser impelemntaion is about 60 lines of C code (I can't 
believe JSON and such goes that low)

- 0 external dependencies

- not language specific - many languages don't have easily accessible 
json/xml/whatever parsers but can read lines of text

- you sure noticed it's not a tree, but a flat thing

Well, MYSP (Make Your Specific Proposal) and we'll see if it gains 
acceptance. Even better if you also include your implementation with the 
proposal.
