Okay, but conversely, the position that the markup for every possible
documentation scenario must be in standard DocBook doesn=E2=80=99t scale. It
means DocBook just gets larger and looser until out of the box it has
very few constraints.

For most non-trivial documentation tasks, I end up with a bit of custom
markup and a bit of custom stylesheet processing. Sometimes I do that by
making an actual schema customization, sometimes with Schematron, and
sometimes by leveraging the new =E2=80=9Clocal-conventions=E2=80=9D transfo=
rmation in
xslTNG[1].
