It satisfies some people entirely, and other people very poorly.  The
folks it satisfies poorly tend to be people who need to do very
layout-intensive "retail" forms with lots of irregular styling and
arbitrary layout.  They don't like it because it often it requires that
they write Deform templates.  This is a large percentage of people.

So, not very close.

I think probably not, given the above answer.

If the next question is "what would it take to...", the answer is "I
don't know".  I haven't had much occasion to think about it, and won't
