Yes... But this is also why, concurrently, work has to be done to get
rid of some unnecessities: that documents produced on Plan9 be viewable
on Plan9 with only Plan9 means (external documents are another problem).
And this is why I prefer TeX other *roff: not because of some religious
war; but because TeX is a whole system, including fonts and mean to
make them, and there is a shortest path to full autonomy. (And this is
why kerTeX will still produce DVI, even with extensions, and not
directly PDF.)
What would be fun would be a... PDF to DVI converter (because it will
mean a huge part of "dropping" features---/dev/null is something I can
not do without.)
