Actually, this tool already existed; Monte Goulding made it back in 2003
<http://lists.runrev.com/pipermail/use-revolution/2003-June/017385.html>
and it can be downloaded from the aging Revolution developer section of his 
Sweat Technologies website:
<http://www.sweattechnologies.com/rev/>

The problem in IT is that time seems to go in loops, and old ideas get 
reinvented every couple of years and rebranded as the Next Big Thing. Sometimes 
funny to see (remember the Network Computer as a Return of the Terminals?) but 
often a lot of duplicated effort.

Mind you, I haven't had a chance yet to check out Andre's take on this - and 
his idea of multiple formatters to generate several types of documentation from 
the same source, is definitely something to look forward to - maybe even 
include an exporter for the Rev Interoperability Project?
