All the DTDs are there, in XXE_install_dir/addon/config/docbook/dtd/. Otherwise it would not be possible to reopen say a DocBook 4.1.2.5 document. There is no need to make the GUI of XXE more complicated than it already is. If you have a DocBook 4.2 document and want to create a new one, suffice to use File|Open As Template... and select the existing DocBook 4.2 document. This is a nifty feature which is often ignored simply because it does not resemble what you find in ``Office software''.
