Why is that? In my limited understanding lm allows to specify the
location of a resource in more sophisticated ways, where is the
connection?

Not sure this kind of lazy consensus is the right approach here. I
understand is that Tim has pointed out a problem with the lm
implementation. Should it not be up to us now to demo that this
problem has been solved (us of course including Tim :-) rather than
expecting Tim to object?

... so that using this plugin Forrest will translate any documentv1.3
to xhtml2 and from there create html4 and pdf?
Can we also include direct support for the subset of xhtml2 that we
are gonna use?
