So, after all that background,
Or is it simply not relevant?
I suggest that whatever Microsoft may do to add an XML veneer to Word, it will remain an unstructured word processor. While it may be possible to use future versions of Word to create user-defined XML (doing it with the current version is akin to writing by shaping cooked spaghetti into words), the vast majority of Word users will use it as an unstructured tool. So, what ever capabilities are provided for presenting the documents are irrelevant to XSL-FO. XSL-FO is a technology for presenting STRUCTURED documents.
So, any change to the output options of Word won't affect the market for display tools for structured documents.
