This will need some care. The documents and outline are one major outcome (some 
might say the whole point) of the AFP sessions. So we still need to test them 
in the nightly run and some sessions will require special setup, e.g. other 
programs to run before the document is produced. This should be only a very 
small number of sessions, though, which we can probably work out.

It'll definitely be nice to have a faster non-latex mode for developers.
