Why not. Perfect. 

PHP -> HTML (highlight_string)
PHP -> XML  (ext/phpdoc)
PHP -> SGML (ext/phpdoc + sgml)

Sure. Doing the SGML in PHP based on the XML could simplify the development
a lot. Perhaps XSLT can be usefull in these cases.

PHP -> XML -> [XSLT] -> HTML
PHP -> XML -> [XSLT] -> DocBook
PHP -> XML -> PHPDoc

This would be nice.
