I have various wild ideas how to improve emacs towards a block structure
which is don't require a lot of changes to emacs commands.

One idea, is to allow stacking of images and text flow around images.

Another idea is to create "floating" windows which are inserted just
like an image -- but with all the normal emacs editing features of a
normal emacs window (except modeline, scrollbars, fringes, etc) 

Combine these with display word wrap, you can get pretty close to WP
capabilities.

But that's AFTER 21.4 :-)
