Rich Text and Argument Maps

Hello,

I think WikiTeX is a brilliant idea... and I would be happy to make contributions in my areas of interest.

I would like to define a language for semantically-rich text, including |Argument Maps (http://www.austhink.org/monk/Fenner/Fenner.htm) and finer formalizations. This formal structure would be reminescent of XML and could have many ways of being displayed, all of which I think could be encoded in graphviz.

AFAIK, LaTeX is meant for static documents only (DVI, PS, PDF), so I imagine that it doesn't support such dynamic structures. Or does it?

Is the language used to render a WikiTeX object always the same as the one used in the corresponding LaTeX package? If so, does that mean that the first step is for me to create a LaTeX package?
