Maybe using an XSLT transformer to modify it
before proccessing by DocBookWiki would be better.
This can be safer and cleaner and it can be used
to make other modifications as well, in order to
conform to the conventions of DocBookWiki. E.g.
tags of type <preface> can be converted to
<chapter> or <section>, etc.

So, you want to add support for the tags <preface> and
<appendix> as well. And then, there should also be
a front page for each book, which displays only
title, authors, date, abstract, copyright etc.
(in general the things that are included in the
<bookinfo> or <articleinfo> tags) and nothing else
(no preface, no index, etc.) This front page should
have a stylesheet (CSS) different from the rest of
the pages (nodes or sections).

Did I get it right? If not, please explain it a bit
more clearly, and I can add it in the list of the
feature requests (improvments). But I am going to
do it only after I finish the integration with RefDB.
