Yes. Object binding/serialization is really one of the fields where every
developer has it's very specific goals and priorities. Probably this explains
why there are so many APIs around.

Very simple answer: I actually prevent JDOM from building a complete JDOM tree
in memory for exactly the reason you mention. So you might wonder why I use
JDOM at all, if I don't want an in-memory tree? Simply for convenience! The
JDOM "Element class" is so convenient (in comparison to handling SAX events),
and this makes it easy to write bindings, i.e. conversion routines between the
specific Java objects and the "Element"s.

See the documentation in the source code (Which I sent) for details.
