Oh yeah, a parser-based tool becomes more useful for generating a starting-point for bindings if you're dealing with a *large* API, and can specialize your tool for the conventions of that API. For example, you might know as human knowledge that a certain application-specific type, or one prefixed with a certain CPP macro, should always be passed in a certain way. So you can hard-code that application-specific special case into your generator.
