So the
committee decided that DocBook 5 would provide general
elements that could
be applied to components in all languages, and DocBook 5 was the
opportunity to remove such specific elements. As you
suggested, using a
role attribute can make the markup more specific so that a
stylesheet can
do something different in formatting it. There is also a
DocBook 5.0: The
Transition Guide:
http://www.docbook.org/docs/howto/
Yes. I should have mentioned that the Transition Guide suggests <varname
remap="structname"> and <varname remap="structfield"> instead of
<structname> and <structfield> in DocBook 5.
