Mark, limited would be better than nothing.

And, if Google opened up Docs, I bet some clever and generous people would do the non-trivial work of adding a way of classing elements.

The amount of stuff you could do with CSS would be limited unless they provided a way to set the class names on things. That UI would be non-trivial.

I completely agree. I have requested this feature via their help. What would also be sweet is if the output of Google Docs was XHTML 1.0 (or even better 1.1). I’ve noticed tags in the markup.

Here’s another “why not?” idea I had regarding Google Docs.

The problem:

The function “send this page to a friend” is usually not usable because the sender has to remember (or copy paste) the address of the friend.

The idea:

If a person is at a Google Docs document AND is logged in to her Google account, the Gmail address book is available for sending the link to her contacts.
