>From what I can tell as an XSL FO developer, getting full CSS support gets
you *a lot* of the way towards XSL FO support. As I said on xsl-list, most
of the hard stuff I've found in implementing XSL FOs would be hard in CSS
too.

I hope to support CSS "FO"s in FOP at some stage (although given the
unification that seems to be happening in XSL, FOP will probably
automatically handle CSS FOs by virtue of handling XSL FOs)
