Apart from odt output, I'd be curious to know what reST can do that
org-mode markup and export cannot. Footnotes, tables, hyperlinks,
images---I've found org-mode to be a really great authoring tool for
exporting both to xhtml, ascii, and LaTeX/pdf output. (And, of course,
using latex2rtf, it's trivial to convert the tex files org-mode produces
into files that can be edited in Open Office.)

I wonder if the ascii export from org would be difficult to convert to
reST markup. Section headers and footnotes in the ascii export seem
pretty close to the corresponding markup in reST. Just a thought....
