I'm curious, can you give an example of where it doesn't work? Maybe I've
missed something  :)

It's interesting that it seems to be such a great controversy around this, I
would think that many authors would relish the fact that instead of spawning
out a multitude of html tags they can use a few simple and meaningful ones.
But then again maybe the claim is that most cms's uses a WYSIWYG editor
and they don't have to write tags at all,  but still.

Personally I think that vendords invested so much time and money into their
WYSIGWYG tools that they're loathe to give them up ;) It's a easier sell to
say "just press this button" for bold than trying to explain the
XML-paradigm
