Can’t agree more on the advantages of having HTML reports. For the same reason we have built a webkit based reporting module [1] for tryton too. The default implementation uses genshi templates, but there is an example of using Jinja [2]. Jinja2 templates would be a standard of the module soon [3]. In addition to HTML, the engine produces a PDF too using the webkit engine.
