(In principle), Docbook exporter can move to the new core. This would
considerably reduce the size of the org-docbook.el.

There are lots of generic exporters for Org. There is a Wes's generic
exporter C-c C-e g and Bastien's very own org-export.el. There is this
new one. 

With my new patches, org-html.el and org-odt.el share a common core to
 which they plug in using callbacks. This common core is right now part
 of my new org-html.el.

If you are a developer and have some use-cases in mind may be you could
help with refining the new core. The exporter is line-oriented (unlike
the LaTeX exporter) - whatever that means :-).
