Where is DocBook going? Perhaps deferring to an external standard such as
xNAL, merged into DocBook 5 as an optional module:

Actually, the stylesheets do have provision for localizing personal name
layout. Initially it was using a role attribute on the personname
element, as described here:

You can specify three alternative styles:
"first-last"
"last-first"
"family-given"
IMHO that is a kludge.
Take 6 variants, rather than a couple.
The single token values becomes 'rather' large.
Where is docbook going next I guess is the question?
