   i have this long term aim to produce a web site with descriptions
   of latex internals functions, but at the rate i'm going, latex 3
   will be old hat by the time i've completed the documentation of
   2e.
   
   (still, i'll be retired by then.  'll give me something to do, won't
   it?)

My 2 cents: if LaTeX was self-documenting like Emacs Lisp, presumably
there wouldn't have to be the same kind of huge after the fact
documentation efforts.  "Literate Programming" for LaTeX shouldn't be
such a far out notion.
