Sounds nice.

I think you might be interested in the S5 Slide Show system:

  http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/s5/

  S5 is a slide show format based entirely on XHTML, CSS, and
  JavaScript. With one file, you can run a complete slide show and have
  a printer-friendly version as well. The markup used for the slides is
  very simple, highly semantic, and completely accessible. Anyone with
  even a smidgen of familiarity with HTML or XHTML can look at the
  markup and figure out how to adapt it to their particular
  needs. Anyone familiar with CSS can create their own slide show
  theme. It's totally simple, and it's totally standards-driven.

See the quite impressive demonstration here:

  http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/s5/s5-intro.html

I think it would be *much* easier to go that way, since the export
format will just be a subset of HTML.  Unless someone points to a very
simplistic example of ooimpress format, I'd rather not mix up with this.

Of course this rely on the yes-coming-soon! brand new exporter.  
I will work on it this WE, maybe something good will come from this.

Play with S5 and let me know if you'd find it useful to have a S5
exporter in Org.
