Besides the obvious interaction, using the Muse engine to produce
other export formats, can you think of more ways to interact?

I have actually been thinking about an org-to-muse converter as a
possibility for easy expansion to many more export formats. So I have
a number of ideas about what would be needed and where the difficulties
lie. A short appetizer:
- Headline detection should be trivial, however
- Org-mode uses (at least: can use) many more levels than the 4
available in Muse now. The Org-mode exporters just switch to
itemized lists at some headline level.
- Org-mode allows plain lists (itemize, bullet, numbered) of
arbitrary depth and uses indentation to see the end of items.
Muse, if I remember correctly, has one level of lists and is
therefore very relaxed about indentation in lists
- Apart from plain lists, indentation is not syntactically significant
in Org-mode, it is more visual sugar to make outline easily readable.
Muse uses indentation for syntax, to quote text, for example.
- Links are similar, but not identical.
- Org-mode table lines also start with "|". Table headlines are
implicit, before the first horizontal line in the table. No
footer lines.
- etc.....
It can be done, but it is not trivial.
- Carsten
