Emacs as a word processor

WYSIWYG editors are popular among normal people. Emacs as word
processor will expand the reach of Emacs, and thus software freedom
too.

25 years ago I hoped we would extend Emacs to do WYSIWG word
processing.  That is why we added text properties and variable width
fonts.  However, more features are still needed to achieve this.

Could people please start working on the features that are needed?
