of course, building a lot of index.php^H^H^Hhtml would not enable 
turning pages.

modularity is better for extensions

what I have in mind would not really benefit from cache:
think about an individualized catalog where the user do some selects and 
the resulting products will be stored in a small brochure like ebook:
just a general introduction, then the (up to 50 out of >10000) products 
with full description, maybe an overview, and last some general 
information like 'terms and conditions'

the end format is not determined and could be any format usable as one 
unit (ebook, pdf, chm, ...). zip would be not so good as it exploded to 
single files.
