Letters in reST?

Hi,

I am using LyX and LaTeX class scrlttr2 for writing my business 
letters. However, whenever I start to write a new letter, I am 
painfully reminded that it is actually last use of LyX I have 
(with the help of zrst2* tools I can now use Zotero for writing 
documents in rST; thank you!).  Of course, I could easily write 
those letters just in a plain LaTeX in my $EDITOR, but it seems 
that highly form-like documents like business letters could be 
with benefit written in rST. I guess it is just question of 
defining proper roles and some kind of templating.

As an example this document in LyX
https://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/lorem-ipsum-LyX-edited.png 
(with some details obscured, of course), leads more or less to 
this generated LaTeX 
https://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/lorem-ipsum.tex, which ends 
up in this PDF 
https://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/lorem-ipsum.pdf

Did anybody do such macros? Is it necessary to use 
a preprocessor or would be possible to do just macros in 
.docutils or some other configuration file?

Thank you for any tips,

Matěj
