This is, in fact, what I do now, with the occasional export to--and massage in--LaTeX. And even when trying ConTeXt lately, I often start with that route because I much prefer composing raw text in Markdown where I can. That said, the RTF export by Pandoc, while not perfect, is a useful step. I hear Mojca's point about the difficulty of re-integrating RTF or Word/etc revisions; I share that philosophy. But many of my colleagues don't. I try to use PDF as the interchange format but many don't like dealing with them. None of that is insurmountable, or any knock on ConTeXt, it is just a consideration to--well--consider. I still have many uses for something TeX based!
