I haven't looked at or tried either org-s5 or the html5 presentations. I would like to note that much of the refactoring of the html exporter is already done and is ready for prime time. I would very much like to see that my code be used for such experimentations. I will only note that the only way Free Software can thrive is by adopting an "embrace and extend" approach.
