Sweave/LaTeX is really not as bad as you think. I started using it and I'm generating reports without a glitch. I'd consider giving it an honest effort.

Sweave and LaTex is way to much overhead to deal with. There should be a
built in standard report() function analogous to plot().

Something like the following is necessary if you want real people to take R
seriously:

report(data=<aDataFrame>, vars=<vectorOfColumnNames>,
label=<vectorOfColumnNames>, by=<vectorOfColumnNames>,
sum=vectorOfColumnNames>, title=<vectorOfStrings>, footer=<vectorOfStrings>,
pageBy=<vectorOfColumnNames>, sumBy=<vectorOfColumnNames>,
filename=<string>, fileType=<text|csv|pdf..>...etc)

Did I say "real" people?  I've been Palinized.
