One problem with literate programming: a large portion of the industry hates to document, and thinks that comments are EEEEVIL. Not me, but many.

I would love to see something like literate programming become more mainstream, though. Even little things like having to repeat parameter names in a block above a function/routine, rather than simply next to each parameter, seems like it’s harder than it ought to be.
