I'm not sure what I had in mind when I filed this bug back in November.  What
should the user interface be?

When working with a RELAX NG schema we could add an "Export to DocBook" feature,
though since you'd want to do the documentation in one place it makes more sense
to skip DocBook and go direct to the outputs from DocBook i.e. "Export as HTML",
"Export as PDF", "Print" and "Print Preview".  These would run the scripts to
convert to DcoBook, then convert the DocBook accordingly (hiding the fact that
docbook is in use).

The other thing to do would be to have an "Export as SVG" option.

The first thing to do is to try the scripts on that page (RNG->DocBook, and
RNG->SVG)

However I've only tried the RNG->SVG script, and I had some problems with it: 
(i) I hacked it into a GNU Make-friendly syntax
(ii) none of the SVG renderers I has could cope with the output from the script.
 I reportedit for librsvg as bug 157815.  Unfortunately the librsvg doesn't seem
too willing to that himself at the moment, so we'd have to do it I guess.
