The LaTeX support seems very nice. Nice job! The concept of a paper as a DVCS repository is a very natural one, and it's exactly how I would write my papers back in the day.
I'm curious how the "host the data and the code" comes in. Perhaps you're supposed to clone the backing git repository and add the code to that, but I don't see how to do that yet. Early days.
If you look at a figure in an article, for example https://www.authorea.com/483, you'll notice that the figure reference has been pulled out of the latex source. We did that so that in the online version of an article we can make figures cooler, like attaching data to them. Figures exist in their own folders, and we have big plans for those folders.
