There are some libraries out there that might make our parsing lives easier.

Construct for binary parsing
Katai Struct is a cross-language parser generator using a declarative config file
Parsita for parsing text. Has better regex support than canopy
Tatsu is another PEG parser, using an EBNF definition
PyParsing helps build PEG parsers, and is currently used by matplotlib for its mathtext support--so it has the benefit of already being indirectly in our dependency tree.
Lark can do a lot from grammar files
