Mmmh...  The discussion is converging on something like an Oz IDE with
smart on-line documentation.  This gives me ideas.

We could even use the Prototyper setting for developing application:
 - organise your application modules in a tree structure,
 - use the editor part to write your programs,
 - and use the third part of the window to document your file!

And the whole thing is an Oz program that we can present as 'just an
example of what you can do in Oz'.
