I am more in favor of the opposite extreme - using Lively to display XML or
HTML document content without CSS per se - instead using Lively stylesheets
or handlers. For the Lively wiki to be more usable for documentation and
such Lively needs enhancements in the area of layout managers and flowing
connected page layouts within vertically scrollable worlds - like a typical
web page. Just want to mention this as being highly desirable to me but I
know it's a pretty significant effort. Markup language support within Lively
though is not as important though as page and section layout management in
general in Lively - in my opinion. In a nutshell, Lively needs page layout
support like Apple Pages or Adobe Pagemaker would provide. Priority: I'd say
below wiki functionality but above visualizations and 3D support.
See the comments on this article for more info and reasoning. Some of the

engines from the browser:

Exciting! That's what I have to say about that! Woot!
