I wonder what the author would replace LaTex with . . . ?

  Something better :) Honestly, nothing is 100% convincing, but if I could pick anything, I'd use HMTL with some templating magic (for generating references). It still leaves the issue of positioning floats and page breaks, which is really non-trivial, even if you already had a "spatial model" of what the generated HTML would look like (I know of no such library, but do tell if you know of it). TBH, floating figures is a non-issue for the web, where you can just position them in the flow. It's only in print that this is an issue. I'd be fine to put figures on separate pages, but that might be a waste of paper.
