Nah.

Just to show you what is possible with SSIs and why I think using reST
for webpages is not crazy:

Have a look at http://www.home.unix-ag.org/simon/bsdaemon/ . The raw
source of it is::

   <!--#include virtual="$SCRIPT_NAME/../../include/head_start.shtml" -->
   <title>A vector version of the BSD Daemon</title>

   <!--#include virtual="$DOCROOT/include/body_start.shtml"-->

   <h2>
   A vector version of the BSD Daemon
   </h2>

   <p>
   <img src="bsdaemon.png" alt="Preview of the BSD Daemon" align="right"
   width="326" height="352"><p>
   </p>

   <p>
   The BSD daemon originally was done by John Lasseter. The copyright
   holder for these images is Marshall Kirk McKusick &lt;<a
   href="mailto:mckusick@mckusick.com">mckusick@mckusick.com</a>&gt;.
   </p>

[some more simple paragraphs ommitted]

   <p>
   Grab the tarball <a href="bsdaemon-1.0.tar.gz">here</a>.
   </p>
   <p>
   Have fun!<br>

   <!--#include virtual="$DOCROOT/include/navi.shtml"-->
   <!--#include virtual="$DOCROOT/include/body_end.shtml"-->



I think it should be fairly trivial to create such an output with
reST (just need to change some small things for the header/footer).

And there is no CSS used yet.

Bye,
        Simon
