Just to keep these two and also <index> and <bibliography> off the front 
page would be ideal.  I think it is necessary because these are 
presented differently in the printed output.  For example, the front 
matter uses roman page numbering, and also you don't want the number of 
the real "Chapter 1" to be bumped up by a preface.  Not to mention, it 
makes the front page too crowded.

I will experiment some more with images and see what I can get to work. 
  I am already using a sed script to munge my DocBook before processing 
by DocBookWiki.
