For Scriptus, I've seen create/edit tool lists that are bafflingly rich and long. Editing text is... editing text; With Scribus you can insert a layout box, and put in it the output of LaTex (processed), or reST. so the editing is still separate. It seems to me the argument you are making is one of workflow, and prefering not to deal w/ markup languages (of any kind) if at all necessary, and I don't know that I disagree with you.... it's just that I don't find markup languages all that troubling (heck , used nroff and troff for years - was the best way to self generate a book / paper, well before "Word" ... or even Microsoft! existed). But I'm just toying with you - I don't mean to dismiss you, merely show the circularness of these arguments. There's nothing wrong with Sphinx. Theres nothing wrong with LaTex; there's nothing wrong with Scribus. All require some learning (now, if you want to mush it all together, let's just use open office and be done).
