I think I can probably diddle with style sheet customization to do the following, but I would love to be able to do it directly in DocBook:

1. Insert a chunk of text in another language that requires another font.

2. Have a "listing" element similar to "example" or "figure" that results in a TOC list entry (Table of Listings). E.g., see Listing 3.

3. Be able to indent the first line of a specific paragraph.

4. Have the first line of a series of paragraphs in a section not indented but the rest indented.

5. Be able to insert almost any arbitrary chunk of fo at the block level.

If anyone can show me how to do any of those in DB 5 I would appreciate it greatly!

Thanks for listening.
