Sounds very promising indeed.  I have just started reading Steve Muenchs
book on the Oracle XML tools, where he demonstrates how to use JTidy in
this way (abeit it is by creating a DOM by JTidy, and moving it to an
Oracle DOM for further processing).

I believe that such a program would be extremely important for the
future in order to allow the XML world to access the host of HTML
documents "out there".

Very much the same as a SGML-frontend would allow the XML-world to reuse
old documents directly.
