No.  That's a trade-off we have to make.  CMake will now need Sphinx
to build the documentation.  However, now the documentation will be
indexed, cross-referenced, and easier to write and maintain.

It can generate whatever Sphinx can generate.  IIRC Sphinx does not
currently support DocBook output but I see no reason it couldn't be
taught to do so.  That would be re-usable for many other packages that
use Sphinx too.
