I'm not aware of anything similar. DocBook has no attribute that is targetted 
for this purpose.

However, you could (ab?)use some common attributes (maybe condition?) and 
customize the chunking template. Haven't tried it yet.

A possible easier solution would be to use the <?dbhtml?> processing 
instruction. It's explained in the link below.

Would the following link fit your needs?
