List, Emmanuele,
   Sorry for taking this rude tone yesterday, sometimes
you just need to take more time to get your point across
nicely, and I had no time but would still like to apolagize
for the tone.

That being said, yes I do believe that aborting on parse
failures as oposed to cleaning up and returning a proper
GError is "lowering the bar", I also have a healthy habit
of accepting nothing less than excelence, as specially
when I dont have some corporate driven manager telling
me that good software is costing him too much.

Now if anyone really wants to argue that having the parser
abort() would in fact be /better/ than cleaning up and reporting
the error - i.e. would it be a better product if it aborted
instead - then I should at least be open to hear those arguments.

Cheers,
                   -Tristan
