Subject: Re: [docbook-publishers] Dialog & Poetry Markup

The only additional items I've seen, which caught me out, was a minor
addition at the end of a piece. Possibly a general annotation, possible
a source reference. I came across it whilst marking up content such
that it appeared as the original print (i.e. not true semantic, but sometimes
required).
