I dream of having a general Python parser for Org mode files, knowing
every bit about the current syntax for Org files, surrounded by enough
Python machinery to make it useful.
One non-negligible problem is that such a tool, to be very complete,
would need an Emacs Lisp interpreter, which is all of an undertaking in
itself. Maybe that some half-heated compromise could be developed? A
hundredth-hearted compromise is likely the most I could do! :-)
