(Well, I suppose some > special purpose DocBook tool might, but let's not worry about that.) I'm wondering how such "direct" support would look like. All toolsets that work with DocBook are in some way specially purposed for DocBook. Today we have XSLT and DSSSL stylesheets (and other obscure conversion tools) that work specially with DocBook. Even in the unforeseeable future there will have to be some sort of tool that associates semantics to raw DocBook. For such a tool it's pretty irrelevant whether it converts xlink or some other linking system for presentation. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net
