Yes they're generated through LaTeX but we do support advanced formatting like table of contents (that's automatic) and stuff like real footnotes (using a code similar to bbcode: [footnote]Your footnote[/footnote]).
We believe that such a semantic representation of a book is more flexible: this way we can output anything out of this representation. We're still deep into beta, mostly working on the e-newspaper feature right now, but our goal in the future is to provide a completely flexible way to generate e-books using templates/skins.
There's too much time spent on converting to a single format, since we'll have this e-babel problem on our hands for some time, using xml/database to store books and then generate the right format out of it seems like the best solution for the future.
