No no, don't get me wrong: I've been exclusively an emacs user for 13 years. But is anyone going to publish a non-trivial (i.e. more than one author/editor) document in something that can only be used from emacs?

I don't think 'trivial' is exactly the term one might apply to "War and Peace"...

Perhaps you meant 'collaborative'?

War and Peace is a non-trivial writing task. This is a tool for publishing, not writing per se. I can assure you that the original War and Peace was edited by at least one other human being, and took the effort of many people to typeset and print, so it wasn't trivial even by this definition. :)
