  If you get the parser up to an error, then it cannot recover [*], so no.
But the reader is based on the push parser. So it should be relatively
easy to keep the control of the input stream. But I would need to see
some pseudo (python) code so I get an idea of the kind of interface you
want.

[*] basically a requirement of the XML spec !
