Yeah, it was worth saying, and I think there's a lot of validity
there. There are actually a few options that could be pursued:

 * Convert from DocBook to Texinfo with the docbook2x tools
 * Dump to text with a (really) simple stylesheet
 * Dump to man format with a stylesheet included in docbook-xsl-stylesheets

I think you'd end up sacrificing some quality in those cases, but
maybe it would be good enough for bootstrapping purposes. I also have
no idea how much work would go into providing this. Just food for
thought.
