The end result is much more like a reflowable pdf than an html document.
Also, there are no soft hyphens or other hyphenation indicators added to the text.

Thanks for the overview. It is nice to see that some progress is being made. This makes me wonder whether there is a completely new rendering engine at work or perhaps simply a modified one to incorporate dealing with the new formatting instructions.
