Just a quick observation: If you really prefer to think in terms of
generating TeX rather than XSL-FO, IBM published a technology
demonstration quite some time ago which consisted of a XML equivalent
syntax for LaTeX and a postprocessor that would convert this into standard
LaTeX markup. It might still be available from the alphaWorks website.
