Only the guidelines are normative so that may be the only doc that we have restrictions on. I think Wendy is checking this out in more detail.

I think this is essentially the same as dynamically generated multiple views, where a document is generated based on the user's selection and sorting requirements instead of having a small number of pre-existing versions of the documentation. I don't know how this would work given W3C publishing rules and practices but I can fully appreciate the attractiveness of the idea (from a user's perspective, not from that of whoever would have to implement the script to carry it out).
