The DocBook CSS stylesheet has been completely rewritten (a enormous
task) and will be part of next release. This should greatly improve the
rendering of the elements you cite.

There are no layers at all. In fact, it is very simple.

Rendering on screen just requires XXE and
config/docbook/css/docbook-collapsible.css or docbook.css (which imports
a number of CSS files).

The CSS style sheet is maintained by XMLmind.

Conversion to HTML just requires saxon, the XSLT engine bundled with
XXE, and config/docbook/xsl/html/docbook.xsl or
config/docbook/xsl/html/chunk.xsl (which includes a number of XSLT
files).

The XSL style sheet is *not* maintained by XMLmind (that is, we just
bundle a copy with XXE). Its author is Norman Walsh. See also
http://docbook.sourceforge.net/support.html

And there is no implementation relationship between rendering on screen
and conversion to HTML.
