In theory you're right, exporting and publishing work really well.
But if you want to collaborate with other people in my opinion you can't
rely so much on importing/exporting.
You would spend too much time to merge and fix manually stuff.

I think that working with two products only (if the other one is a bit
smart) using some elisp magic you can really create a mixed environment
that works, but that's not a general solution.

For example for the calendar.
It would be nice to have a system where org-mode and $PROGRAM_X reads
and writes at the same time on a webdav shared calendar.
