Hedley:

Cross-references are improved by using autotext to create some building 
blocks, although they're still not as good as in FrameMaker.

ToCs and the like are clumsy but tolerable when you get to know them, although 
organized differently from FrameMaker's.

But the anchored graphics -- there, I miss FrameMaker something fierce. I don't 
know what's so hard about the concept that an anchor is supposed to keep a 
graphic where you put it.
