Thanks a *LOT* for this work!  I'm willing to help as much as possible
to get this integrated.

Let me understand: this is more a generalization of the HTML export than
a true generic exporter, right?  The docstring of org-do-export suggests
so.  Rewriting org-html.el so that the HTML export is done in a more
generic way is a *good* thing, but we should be careful with the naming
of the functions here.

This makes sense.

Please everyone test it and report any problem.  I was kept away from
Org due to personal issues the last week, but I'm available again.

All best,
