I thought about that, but I wasn't sure if the extra dependency was the sort
of thing which might go against it. I suppose that for an output formatter,
extra dependencies aren't so bad (if you don't have the ReportLab stuff, you
can't produce PDF directly, so use HTML, or go via TeX, or whatever...)
