Well said, Silvia. An e-journal can escape some of the most annoying problems of print journals, like limits on numbers of pages per year or color illustrations and graphics.
A repository for papers, including ones that haven't been reviewed, is another creature, like the Rutgers Optimality Archive (to give only one example), and could serve a purpose, though a very different one from a journal.

I personally think that it is not the right approach to say that such an ejournal would ape print journals, I rather think that it is in everybody's interest to have a quotable publication, nobody wants to waste energy to set up a collection of papers with an unclear scholarly status (I think so, at least)
