A book title with a footnote. Wow.

If you put this template in your customization layer:

   <xsl:template match="title" mode="book.titlepage.recto.mode">
     ...
   </xsl:template>

I believe it'll be called for the book's recto title. It's not
immediately obvious to me why the current book title processing looses
the footnote, but there's book.verso.title in titlepage.xsl that might
be a good starting place.

                                        Be seeing you,
