What's important is that things that *should* work well on small

That's more of an attribute of the text reader than any thing else.
I've had readers that reflow text just fine --- far better than PDF,
at any rate.

It requires a format that does allow reflowing and repagination. HTML does, PDF/A does, text/plain does not (maybe RFC 2646 would help, maybe not). text/plain is what we use, and that's a problem that'll need to be solved.

Best regards, Julian
