Nope, I have no idea with regard to the design.=20

If I had to do so myself, I would give a try to sax parser, when you can =
attach
events to tags because that's the way the sgml module works. But of cours=
e, if
you are the one who does the job, you are the one who takes the design de=
cisions ;)

The only limit is that sentences should not be splitted up in the middle =
just
because there is a damn <bold> tag in there. But you already know that...
