One incomplete and (apparently) frozen implementation with a limited
range of incomplete backends is not exactly something to put your

I *dearly* wish someone would write a complete implementation of the
DSSSL style language. but even so, we don't (IMHO) have formatters
capable of doing the job such an implementation would require.
