Elementtree isn't lex. You are comparing apples and oranges here. Lex
tokenizes, yacc creates trees. Both of is covered in XML itself - it's
defined the tokenization and parsing, built into elementtree. So,
elemnttree is lex _and_ yacc for XML. And if your language is written in
XML, that's all there is to it.
