If we used LaTeX it would have to be LaTeX with an extra macro set on
top to handle distinguishing between options, addresses, odds etc.

However LaTeX -> HTML is one of those places where demons lurk - I
haven't seen output from a converter of large documents that I really
liked. Its actually no advantage over texinfo for this.
