William,

I'm able to convert my open-source linear algebra textbook from LaTeX
to jsMath in an automated way, and you have seen my experiments in
converting snippets of the jsMath versions into SAGE worksheets.

When I attempt to convert the entire book this way, I'd expect each of
the 40 or so sections to be its own worksheet.  I use a lot of
hyperlinks to definitions and theorems, so there would be a lot of
links between worksheets.  And the creation of these links is under
the control of the translator (tex4ht).

I haven't thought too hard about the details, but it seems greater
flexibility in naming and locating work sheets would be necessary.
So I thought I'd toss out this scenario as a similar situation where
some extensions to the worksheet file name and location structure
could make new uses of SAGE possible.

Thanks,
Rob
