I'd say a preprocessor of some sort that can take the Options.lb and 
produce latex. Furthermore, we can add "hints" to Options.lb such as 
"you can set the MAX PCI to 5 if you are sure there are no higher 
devices" or some such.

But documents derived from source is probably all we can expect, given 
our time limits.
