To what extent does oolatex not do this? Granted, it could work better.

I have never make oolatex working. Actually, it worked once a few
years ago but the whole layout was messed up.

Could possibly be borrowed from KDE apps, with appropriate adjustments.

Yes.

These are orthogonal, yes? In any event, (1) would be easy to implement
if we had (i) my modular stuff, which is almost working, and (ii) a
"layout" pane similar to the preamble pane where you could enter layout
info on the fly. Embedding would then be a simple matter of dumping all
the layout info into that pane---I mean, that's how it would seem to the
user.

So they are in your hand now. :-)

This would rock. I've thought about it a bit, and surely it can't be
that hard. The backend essentially exists.

This as well. :-)
