Well, the bug tracker is the main point of discussion, except that few
people bothered discussing it.

You could ask to get included in the "experts" index:
http://docs.python.org/devguide/experts.html
(I doubt anyone would object to that)

I don't think there's any point in making the class name longer.
Parsing XML incrementally is pretty much what it does.
As for the docstring, uh, well, sure :-)
(IMHO, IncrementalParser is the One Obvious Way to do incremental XML
parsing in 3.4, but YMMV)
