I suppose going through tex4ht is one way, but, to say the least, it
doesn't seem very elegant.
LyX manages to produce XHTML directly without going through the tex
procedure (though the Export -> LyXHTML procedure) . I'm not sure how,
but it even allows different citation styles to be ouput.
This seems like an important problem if Org is going to be the
mechanism for publishing both eBooks and printed books. The LyX people
are working hard on getting a direct eBook exporter, but it would be so
much nicer to be able to write directly in Org mode.
I regret that I don't have the programming skills to work on the
problem. It's always easy to sit back as a user and say "Gee, this
needs to be done."
