Heh, as another commenter said below, "i see the first problem is that you're generating HTML". The nice thing is, that is in no way intrinsic to Eve. The @browser DB is a regular DB like any other that we happen to sync to the client, and the client has a bit of code (which users will be able to extend in the future with other functionality) that takes HTML-shaped records and turns them into actual DOM on the screen.

Since we are targeting programmers first right now, it seemed better to focus on other aspects of the editing experience than to try and re-invent document markup to start with. That said, we're not opposed to exploring that possibility down the road. If you have any thoughts on the subject I'd love to strike up a conversation on the mailing list [1].
