Hi,

 don't know, I understand what you're after. Questions below.

 What does "in addition to the main document" or "to the one returned
by `org-export-data'" mean? In the current multipage code,
org-export-data returns a list of strings corresponding to the
exported pages.

In the case of html multipage output: Should :multipage-pages contain
what is supposed to get exported by the multipage-html subbackend, or
should the pages to be exported be left as subpages of org-data in the
:parse-tree like as it is now? If they are contained in
:multipage-pages, we don't need any rendering of the org-data node in
the :parse-tree. Should the elements of org-data then just get deleted
and we return an empty string from org-export-as in addition to the
list of strings from :multipage-pages?

Can't tell until I've fully understood your proposal.

It's not clear to me, how the encapsulation of parameters is handled,
who is writing the output files, etc. Sorry, I'm just confused...

Sure.
