However, we do not accept ConTeXt sources as we use jats xml as our production format. (Actually, I don't expect any of our authors is using ConTeXt.)

Well, it's not field tested yet. But yes, the demo files work.

(Last week I had an article whose author never grew out of the typewriter, i.e. every line was a paragraph, footnotes were just paragraphs at the end of his pages – of course my script couldn’t handle that well.)

Yeah, as always, the output is only as good as the input. That's partly why I use pandoc (twice, actually.) In a first run, I produce a normalized markdown file, where such idiosyncrasies are removed. There, I then add additional formatting. In the second run I can then produce the XML. We need the XML to produce a nice web view using the Lens Viewer. And also, with pandoc it's much easier to produce XML than ConTeXt. 

Best,
Denis
