I think reports based in document processing tools are good WYSIWYG for some 
types of documents and not for others. For example, they're great for creating 
custom letters to send to customers, but not so good for invoices, some kind 
of listings or complex documents with charts, etc.

Anybody knows if it supports images stored in OpenERP?
