I think it would be desirable to have the wrappers follow the
interfaces of the standard Python libraries, i.e. the SAX2 and the DOM
interface as published in the library documentation. You could also
consider using the registration facilities of PyXML for SAX drivers
and DOM implementations, even if you distribute your wrappers
independent from PyXML.
