OK, I understand what you mean. I don't know if there is a fix for
this issue with sgml and the jade toolkit but I do know there is one
available with xml and the xsltproc toolkit. And I'm available to do
it.

If someone wants to work on sgml/jade/dsssl stylesheets to fix the
issues I talked earlier, great, good news. But I haven't seen anyone
talking about this. So perhaps, the good way to handle this is to go
the xml way.

Regards.
