</div>Assuming it were merged today, that parser would only be available on<br>
Python 3.3 and later: how is that "everywhere"?</blockquote><div><br>Well, "everywhere, eventually". This gets down to the usual philosophical debate of what should (not) be in the stdlib so that those who have strict third-party code get access to useful libraries while balancing the desire of those who want to keep the stdlib lean or prevent stagnating the API of a module.<br>

work against html5lib (which *doesn't* need buildout to install, or even<br>
setuptools) makes them portable to any version of Python supported by<br>
the library (Python 2.3+, AFAICT).<br></blockquote><div><br>If the library was brought in they could probably continue to be portable with possibly just the addition of a try/finally on the import line.<br><br>-Brett<br>
