I think it would be better to keep mdocml as a primary focus until the most necessary features are completed. You have done some research, which is of course valuable but if someone else tries to work on mdocml, she still needs to dig into the subject before completing these items so your time spent on this actually contributes very few. If you do a bit of each objective of your project, none will actually be finished and your work will not serve for too much. I believe mdocml is in fact more difficult than these less important diff options but having mdocml completed would weigh much more than having touched everything a bit. Gabor
