There are some good parsers that need some changes to fit into the
framework:
- nxml-mode XML parser.
- Steve Yegge's javascript parser.
It think that some parser also should be rewritten to work with parts of
a buffer so that all the languages for building XHTML (like PHP etc) can
be supported. A lot of programming is done with such languages today and
IMO it also has a democratic value since frameworks for exchanging
information (Drupal, WordPress etc) are built in those languages.

I am not sure what the benefits with a single parser would be. Instead I
believe that a framework that cooperates with Semantic in some way and
gives it chunks with different major modes would have benefits. (I hope
mumamo can provide this.)
