  Err, we do have qualified module selection. It's probably not quite fine grained enough yet (i.e. you can ask for a Namespace compatible parser, or a Validating parser, but you can't ask for a Fast one, or a low memory one) but those are just further features that we can define.
  
  Thanks for doing the benchmark though.

    Yes I know we have qualified module selection, but not in the way that I think is compatible with what I was describing. Right now you can require a Feature, but it'll blow up if no parser has it.

    Besides, this relies on the fact that module authors declare their parsers to be fast, etc... I don't know if everyone will want to say "My parser is a slow memory hog" ;-)

      But we can use the benchmark to convince the authors... which in any case is going to be Matt most of the time.
      Seriously I think that the memory/speed features of each module is quite well-known.
