Adobe tried this years ago, with a feature that could take a regular magazine 
layout (for example) and format it to display nicely in a web browser or some 
other format. The idea was to design once then deploy in multiple forms. It was 
a good idea. But it always required some tweaking. Sometimes it required a LOT 
of tweaking. And sometimes it didn't work well at all. The nature of the 
problem is such that the solution can never really be perfect.

While it's true that Ubuntu and more recently Microsoft have begun exploring 
convergence strategies for a single adaptable, scalable set of UI conventions 
across all device types, the reality is that to date neither has been 
enormously successful (though the night is young, and the research and APIs 
still in early days).
