We have done some talking internally about whether some sort
of formatted document object should become a part of Zope and
some brainstorming on what it might look like, but there has
not been any final decision on that yet. 

I need to follow up on my plan to maintain a Zope development
plan on Zope.org so that folks in the community can easily 
see what is and isn't on our radar at any given time. Many of
us are pretty heavily loaded with consulting work at the moment,
so I haven't been able to get this going as quickly as I'd hoped.
