I think most of the hostility non-Org users have towards Org files is
the experience of opening one, only seeing a couple of lines with "..."
after them and then going "AAARGH", killing the buffer, and using
`find-file-literally' on it.
But Org files are totally innocuous if you say `M-x org-show-subtree'.
package.el could totally use org files instead of text files for the
readmes if it ran `org-show-subtree' when displaying the Org readmes --
most people wouldn't even notice that they were reading an Org file
(beyond the nice fontification).
