The epilogue pipelines (there is one for servlets and one for portlets)
are very straightforward (especially in 3.0) and I don't think that
you'd be taken a high risk by modifying it.
I'd even say that a modification that serialize non XML documents
according to the spec (
http://www.orbeon.com/ops/doc/reference-formats)
would probably a good thing for most users and you might be able to
convince Erik and Alex to make it standard :-) ...
