Subject: DOCBOOK-APPS: shorthand versions of common tags
Many of the docbook tags that have HTML equivalents seem painfully verbose. (Examples: <emphasis role="bold">, <listitem>). I was wondering if it would be useful to create a wrapper stylesheet called something like shorthand.xsl that would create aliases for these tages. This file would simply define <li> as <listitem>, <i> or <b> as <emphasis>, and so on. It would take the stylesheet to call as a param, so it could work for html, chunk, fo and whatever else. I'm not exactly sure how to implement this, but I'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult and I could probably work it out. My question is, is it desirable? I realize that it could get away from semantic markup, but I think its convenience would be worth it. Thanks, Jack Cushman
