But that would mean more parsing in more places. I'd like to parse
only once, when reading the data structure, and the code then just
walks this data structure without the need for more parsing.
The following Perlisism comes to mind:
The string is a stark data structure and everywhere it is passed
there is much duplication of process. It is a perfect vehicle for
hiding information.
