Use Case

  Actor -- StructuredTextUser

  Goal -- Extend (or contract ;) the provided StructuredText processors to
      provide alternate formatting rules.

      For example, some people don't like the use of single-quoted
      strings to indicate literal text and want to turn off this feature.

  Description:

      New StructuredText rules can be defined in two ways:

      o A new processor can be created from scratch that reads a 
        basic StructuredText document and creates a more specialized 
        documement.  One could, concievably use an XSLT processor
        to perform this transformation, since the basic structured text
        document object implements the DOM API.

      o The supplied 'StructuredText.Document' processor can be
        subclassed to create a customiZed processor, as described in
        CustomizingTheDocumentProcessor.

      The new or customized processor is used to produce document
      objects from basic document objects.
