This suggestion is right on target. I didn't want to mention the unpalatable 
fact in the usability piece, but the only easily-available word-processing 
software that I can find that incorporates these readability tests is <whisper

to create GNOME-compliant tools, then the availability of readability testing 
tools for GDP writers would be a big value-add at source.
