The point is that the author can define their own set of descriptive
classes (also applies to custom interpreted text roles), and a mapping
between those classes and a standard set of "concrete" classes.  In
this case, a document says "subproject", and the renderer understands
that to mean "page-break".  Given a standard set of styles that
Writers generate, such a mapping could allow easy creation of custom
descriptive markup.

Yes, that's what I thought you were working on.  We're on the same
wavelength.  I saw your simple implementation and thought that it
might be more generally useful.  I haven't worked out any details yet
though; it's all just hand-waving.

You can call it whatever you like, of course.  When I think of
subdocuments though, I think of a large document made up of many
files, one file per "subdocument".

line block syntax added

I just added code for the new "line block" syntax to the parser.
Docs, tests, Docutils support, and HTML writer support also added.
The structure of line blocks has changed.  The old "line-block"
directive is now marked as deprecated, and the directive itself now
produces the new structure.

This may pose a problem for users of LaTeX and other output formats.
I hope that they can be updated quickly.  If not, we can temporarily
produce both old and new structures depending on context, but I'd
rather avoid that if possible.

docs:
http://docutils.sf.net/docs/ref/rst/restructuredtext.html#line-blocks

demo:
http://docutils.sf.net/docs/user/rst/demo.html#line-blocks

CVS snapshot:
http://docutils.sf.net/docutils-snapshot.tgz

Support for math?

I would like to start using docutils, but I need some decent math markup. 
Is there any work in this area?

Yes, this produces:

         <line_block>
             <line>
                 eric sings
             <line>
                 a lullaby
             <line_block>
                 <line>
                     a lull
             <line>
                 and a bye

Use one arbitrary level of indentation per nested <line_block>.
I used 1.5em for HTML.  The outermost line_block should not be
indented at all.
