One is to make as much of it as possible in plain old

This is an horrible idea. No sane person would use raw HTML.
The only advantage is that it's HTML so there's documentation
available.
Yeah. I didn't think that one through.
The idea I had in my head was to build a template in (mostly) raw
HTML, write each article as an HTML snippet, and use either a
framework or a build script to paste them together, so it's not
_completely_ raw, just enough so you actually see the HTML. The
main thing was to move away from building all the tags with
macros.
But yeah, I didn't express that clearly enough (or think through
it properly).
