Chris,
I think it is possible that there is an "amazing solution" if only we knew
the right person to ask.
This article talks about the Eclipse capability to distinguish widget
coordinates from model coordinates. "A widget coordinate corresponds to a
position on the text viewer while a model coordinate corresponds to a
position on the document." A view which doesn't show the entire document is
here called a "projection." So one can imagine that the print view and
braille views could be separate projections from the same document.

Unfortunately the example code, which is for an XML editor, is built as an
Eclipse plugin rather than as a stand-alone so I can't understand most of
it.
