Re: [Jython-users] XML in Jython: ElementTree?

Just out of curiosity, would it make sense to Java-ize the "real"  
ElementTree (or lxml) library by swapping out the lib's internal  
calls to c libraries w/ calls to java xml libraries while keeping the  
python interface to them the same?

This way, scripts will be portable between Jython and CPython and  
still be relatively performant, no? If, as I'm assuming, using the  
all-python version in this case causes a severe(?) penalty hit.

Thanks,
