Good points! Of course, TW users are a somewhat esoteric group ... so far. It seems like a serious barrier to serious publishing is getting the data -- and formatting -- out. Need to be able to export in something like RTF, at a minimum, if you want to create a document that a publisher would be willing to consider. You're certainly not going to want to go back and re-apply formatting.
