/ Daniel Veillard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> was heard to say:
|   Very few could actually accept the rigidity due to the document structure
| and associated constraints. The problem is not technical, but nearly social

At can be ameliorated by technology, though. If you had a sufficiently
configurable structured editor, you could make a fairly intuitive
DocBook editor out of it by configuring it to "do the right DocBook
thing" everywhere a word processor user expects it to "do the right
thing".

If the user clicks "bold" when they're between two paras, add the para...

If the user marks a para and clicks "numbered list", wrap an orderedlist
and a listitem around the para.

etc. etc. etc.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
