Yes. Have you taken the time to read the tutorial? If there is *one*
*thing* to remember, it is:
[1] Select an element or a text node by clicking on it in the node path bar.
[2] Use "Insert After" (and *not* "Insert").
If you don't find the element you want to insert in the list. It is
because the schema forbids you to do so in the current context. (XXE
knows that better than you and me.)
In the case of refsection. Select a refsection and press Shift-F1. The
dialog box shows that the content model of a refsection which is:
---

This means:
* If a refsection starts with a title and one or more ``paragraphs'',
you can add a sub-refsection after the *last* ``paragraph''.
* Otherwise a refsection just contains a title and one or more
sub-refsections.

Select explicitly or implicitly the *last* *child* *element* of a
refsection. Then use "Insert After". You'll find "refsection" listed,
select this item.
See attached screenshot. I just clicked in "para" and used "Insert
After" to created nested refsections.

PS: If you have a red icon at the bottom left of the main window, your
document is invalid (the consequence of hand editing). In such case,
please fix it first before proceeding.
