There's been some discussion of this sort of thing in the past, but  
it's my understanding it doesn't exist, per this thread on usenet:

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.text.tex/browse_thread/thread/

+bnf&rnum=2#636de1c3349a5532

That said, I think w/ a restricted subset as you describe, it should  
be possible, and an admirable, and potentially useful project.

Best of luck!
