I agree. I've done exactly this for my thesis last year and ReST is
really well suited for that -- you can supply the LaTeX template,
define styles at the beginning of the document and then write it
practically all in ReST. The only place where I needed a longer LaTeX
block was some algorithm block. Besides that I just used the math
directive and everything worked. Including citations, BTW (BibTeX).

If you have any questions I'm able to answer I'll help gladly.
