inDesign CS3 was a big improvement over CS2.  But even CS3 is missing some
critical features, including cross-references, conditional text, and XML-based
authoring (structured authoring).

I also found ID indexing to be so difficult to use that I'm not sure it
matches FM's capabilities; and it looked as though template-driven documents
(i.e. everyone uses the same corporate templates for a specific customer and
document type).
