It would not appear in the TOC as the two beats are dependent on the 
larger context and not independent units (though they are independent of 
one another, hence the <simplesect>).  These breaks are a bit more than 
merely a graphical separation, as I've said there is a semantic 
difference between these two sections of prose, which, as you state, is 
normally presented to the reader as whitespace.  However, if this were 
merely a presentation issue, I would use <para>  with a role attribute 
and be done with it, but the simplesect (or at least a sect of some 
kind) is warranted, though, with the empty <title>s, a little inelegant.

Anyway, I'm fine with the current schema, I just thoguht I'd see if it's 
possible to get it changed.


thanks,
