I just thought of a cool addition to this (after the initial task is
done). We could have a "search the spec" function. You could enter a tag
like <text:p> or an attribute like @style:font-name and the search would
return the sections of the spec that mention to that tag/attribute.

I took a look at the spec and at first blush this doesn't look too
difficult. We could even distinguish between the section where the tag
is defined and the pages that merely refer to the tag. Like:

<text:p> defined in:
     4 Text Content
       4.1 Headings, Paragraphs and Basic Text Structure

<text:p> referenced in:
    ....

You get the idea.

I could write a Perl program that generates an index file, so the search
could actually be fast.

Cheers,
Daniel.
