ace some part of a fairly well-optimized

care would be needed around
error handling and so on. I can see the appeal, in terms of processing
the actual language rather than a pile of hacks that try to guess what
to do with it - but on the other hand this starts to feel like a much
less natural fit for the way nroff is run in every other situation,
where you're processing one document at a time.
Cheers,
