Sure, I'm willing to do this. I use both fairly heavily and for
everything except object definition, the differences are trivial. One
issue (and one of the reasons I'm holding off) is what form official
SA support will take.

I think the simplest solution is to write a docutils plugin that will
take a series of alternates, display the first, and set the remainder
to ``style="display:none"``. One possibility is to cheat by something
like a general admonition with a custom admonition type and do all of
the hiding in javascript.

As for the selecting a preferred platform, that's simple javascript cookies.

I'll probably implement this after I finish off the docs I feel are
necessary for 1.0 (including API docs and decent docstring coverage).
If someone wants to do it in the meantime, we're always up for
contributions.
