The problem is that if you've already built the OM, the pull parser is 
essentially deconstructing the build objects into XMLStreamReader 
events, which are then used to build (yet another) in-memory model. 
Right?  That seems a) slow, and b) expensive.

I'll go check the archives for some of that discussion - I'm curious as 
to what the issues with just delegating were.
