Having spent an inordinate amount of time trying to deal with the sheer
non-greppability of WYSIWYG file formats and the absolutely hideous
output of the ones that claim to produce human-readable output (what
Microsoft's Internet Assistant and Word Perfect's HTML generator do is
better left undescribed), I recently came to the conclusion that what
FreeBSD is currently using... warts and all... is better.

If Interleaf's so fine and grand it's an exception to this rather
depressing rule, and they're going out of business... perhaps there's
an opportunity there.
