This proposal makes absolute sense and was the intended furture direction. The 
only reason docs adopted xsltproc was because it was part of GNOME and it was 
easier to get people who were working on the GNOME Ubuntu, to use the GNOME 
toolchain.

When Kubuntu was added to the doc portfolio it was just easy or a reduced 
learning curve.

However, now that more people are working on Kubuntu I would suggest a move 
toward mienproc since it would mean better integration with the build 
environment for kde and kde-docs in general. While doing this I would also 
recommend reverting translation tools, for Kubuntu, back to those supplied by 
kdesdk

Hope this helps.
