No, my suggested solution was more replacement types so we could be
sure that we didn't interfere with uses of the existing replacement
types. So replacement3 sounds fine.

Sorry for being a bit unclear and non-specific, it was getting late.

The comment was a more  based on the fact that at the moment we seem
to be stuck on how to "flatten" nested blocks since ODF doesn't
support them.  For example, a para inside an example needs to become
just a para but with a style reflecting para-in-example, not para.
How that is solved I thought might affect how some of the other issues
can be addressed.  And if it can't be solved it makes the other issues
somewhat moot.

I tried things like adding options to the [blcokdef-example] but they
don't seem to be available to the paragraph nested inside the example,
although http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/userguide.html#X73 seems to
suggest they might be.  And inspection of asciidoc.py doesn't show
where they are passed, so no surprise I guess.

So whether a general means of selecting a template based on context
was introduced or some other method is used is likely to change the
backedn conf arrangement.

Hmmm, thats a worry :)

Finally, part of the delay is taking the opportunity to find a new
Linux distro to use, and now putting the data on a raid array.
Restoring backups is a real pain.

Yeah, good game.
