We could definitely use a replacement for LaTeX sometime soon. The syntax is pretty gross and the documents are difficult to understand. And if you move from using a single document to importing multiple distinct files into a main file it's quite difficult to find where a value or setting is coming from. I've found that most LaTeX documentation is merely contained within StackExchange answers, which are of highly variable quality, which is a pretty crappy user experience.
