Narrative reports are wonderful... from a collection of disconnected data attributes, and a cleverly fashioned text scheme, I can get a readable report of the life of all my ancestors (in so far as I know it anyway). But when I upload it to several genealogy sites they mostly make a total mess of it.

What I'm sugesting is a tool you'd use after doing the split tree, to add a paragraph to each individual's note containing the text as it would have appeared in the report. Then I can delete all the contributary events and their notes, and upload a readable tree without having to worry about what each individual site does with multiple residences, event notes, etc.

Agreed. Gedcom is a nice standard but it's the lowest common denominator for sharing information between researchers. And since FH is one of the only few programs to follow the spec properly, it's not much good for all the other programs/systems that don't. Using the lowest common denominator approach by putting the information into the individual's note would solve many problems.
