I can give a few more examples of epubs I previously borrowed that I
noted were missing pages - but I don't think the public catalog says
what the source XML is, or whether it's available for a title, does it?
Would there be any point to my filing a github issue with more
sample titles, in the hope one of them had the source available for
someone who has the internal OL access to make use of it? That seems to
be the blocking point. I'm actually willing to take a look at the epub
generation code myself, but without the input documents to refer to,
would have no way of diagnosing the problem.
