Currently Pandoc parses reST directly.  The python-docutils
implementation contains a tool rst2xml, which emits docutils'
intermediary XML representation, *prior* to mangling for an output
format.

Could pandoc leverage, at least as an intermediary measure, to do the
"heavy lifting" of parsing reST?  Then Pandoc would only have to convert
XML to its internal Haskell datatype hierarchy.
