I'm puzzled by some behavior I observed generating some HTML documents. The
source files are articles. The article section titles seem to be coming out
as I would expect - sect1 title is tagged as an h2, sect2 as an h3, etc.
But the article's title itself, which the documentation clearly says should
be output as an h1, is coming out as an h2. Looking at the file
html/titlepage.xsl, it clearly is inserting an h1.

I had a custom spec file which doesn't do much except not show some of the
things that are usually output by default:
<t:titlepage t:element="article" t:wrapper="div" class="titlepage">
  <t:titlepage-content t:side="recto">
    <title/>
    <subtitle/>
  </t:titlepage-content>
  ...

I merely removed the usual set of elements inside the t:titlepage-content
element, leaving just the title and subtitle, then generated my titlepage
XSL from it.

My grasp of XSLT is tenuous at best, and the complexity of the cover page
customization is such that my head is swimming trying to see where the h2
is coming from.

Here's what the rendered article title looks like in the output. (It also
strikes me as odd that there are so many divs in there...)
...
<body>
<div class="article" id="idp8939920">
  <div class="titlepage">
    <div>
      <div>
         <h2 class="title">My article title</h2>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
...

Any hints about how I can attack this - other than do something kludgey
like give the article title a role attribute like, say,"realtitle" and use
CSS to style a h2 of class"realtitle" to be a bit bigger?

Thanks!
