Fine, so you are proposing to extend the parser to put this
information in the side data. This makes sense to me and sounds a
better approach than the original proposal.

@Petr can you update the patch to extend the parser to expose this
information? Feel free to ask in case something is not clear (I'm not
familiar myself with that part of the code, but I can try to help).
