That's the optomistic view, yes.

But I have a bad feeling that the online version will have larger page
counts, and will include more experimental things that would never
have seen the light of day in a Paizo magazine due to decent quality
control.

One of my favorite 3.x books to date is _Unearthed Arcana_, and that's
got 'this is experimental and largely untested, you're on your own'
stamped all over it.

Absolutely. It had a ton of great ideas. I would love to see a similar
treatment of *every* book online. Why not throw in the alternate rules, and
see who likes them?

Some of my more interesting (to me at least) KJD-IMC articles are, I
think, the KJD-EXP articles. Not necessarily immediately useful, the
way my KJD-RAW and KJD-MOD can be, or my KJD-ALT, but (I hope) the most
thought-provoking.

I hope. I don't see enough comments on them to confirm this, but *I*
like them best.

I concur, even though I rarely comment ;-)
