There's nothing great about SGML, no argument here; but as far as I can tell XML is the same mess except a bit worse. And I can't say I'm particularly thrilled to have to change all the documentation every couple of years just to follow the so-called standard of the day.
As far as I know our documentation almost *is* XML, I think if it weren't for the <!docbook thing at the top it'd be valid. I don't see anything wrong with modifying the way we include stuff slightly to make it valid XML, I doubt it'd be invasive. The DocBook XML toolchain is better in my experience than jade et al anyway.
On the other hand I do question the value of ScrollKeeper integration right now. I think there is a plan to replace it with some new freedesktop.org help standard though no real timeframe to do so.
