Last time I checked Apple's implementation (around 6 months ago) 
namespace support was broken, rendering it useless for any serious task 
involving namespaces (like wox templates in SOPE). Also, lineNumber and 
columnNumber were incorrect in most cases.

Anyhow the general API of NSXMLParser isn't bad at all and a working GS 
implementation in base would be desirable IMO.
