My intention was not to implement yet another document generation
language, but I understand that HTML is not enough for nicely

I am not sure. If the number of 'extra' attributes required for decent
formating is not large then we can add them as extra tags (definetely
pagebreak is one of them. Even TeX with its advanced layout algorithms
still gets pagebreaks wrong occasionally.
