I might as well chime in.  Are there any translation programs out there
for:

write -> troff
troff -> write
troff -> word
word  -> troff

Additionally, hooks for troff macro packages (eg. mm, man, or arbitrary)
in both directions would be especially helpful.  I realize that this might
be a fair amount of work.

PS: Does a "formatcap", ala termcap (or terminfo) make any sense to
anyone out there?
