Yes, but your proposed solution just requires people at the other end
of the chain to do the hard work. A common theme in the design of
Atom is minimizing the amount of work that must be done by publishers
(of which there are many) vs the amount of work done by processing
tools (of which there are few, and which are easier to turn into
common libraries).
