Yeah, but that's a bit of a hack isn't it?  I also don't see anything in
DocBook 5 that indicates to me that we could get rid of that hack then.

In the interest of moving things along, I have committed my patch and
will continue working on the rest of the patch set.

Improvements are welcome and can be submitted separately, but I think
it's hardly worth it because this stuff changes so rarely.
