I don't think there's any complexity problem, really. In your
example, Karl, yes, all the walker callback functions require a pool.
But that's why you have the global "walk_baton" being passed back to
you. Either make your walk_baton a pool, or stash a pool inside it.
No big deal.

Similarily, I have a pool inside my "digger" structure, which expat is
passing to all of my callbacks.
