AFAIK Saturn was intended to be _interactive_ rich interface.
This means some extra annotations in the output which are
not needed without interaction.

I do not think anybody uses it. I would say that it is unlikely
that it would work -- there were too many changes with potential
to break things.
Concerning keeping it: Saturn code caused little trouble, so
to the moment keeping it less effort than removing it. Also,
it could be good starting point for rich interface. Texmacs
folks prefered Scheme for cominitaction, but according to what
Andrey Grozin wrote we could also use tex/latex. Given that
retargeting Saturn code to talk to Texmacs makes sense and
probably would require less work than alternatives.
