seems to me that PD docs could benefit hugely from having dynamically-generated PDF, Printable and XML versions, like http://xml.apache.org/forrest/index.html
If I've learned something in my work with MPEG-7 and standardisation, it's to concentrate on the underlying representation, and not necessarily the tool to do things with.
So I say, concentrate on a good XML format for the underlying material, and everything else will follow. In that case, I could apply some of my work with ConTeXt to take the XML and do some serious typesetting.
cheers, adam
