I'm not sure if I agree with you about Adobe not having a captive audience with FrameMaker. As far as an editor that is relatively easy to use and that has nice single-sourcing features (conditional text and sharing files between books), I don't know of anything that is comparable to Unstructured FrameMaker.
If they switch to subscription only, I may try to switch to Help & Manual, which is supposedly easy to use. But I don't think it will be as easy to create PDFs with Help & Manual since it's topic based and probably not as WYSIWYG as Frame.
