No objection from me, I just want to bring it up again that handling
these with a single-source solution would be nice, i.e. using DocBook
profiling. It would also facilitate merges. This basically consists of
adding edition="print" to the affected section of preface and then
setting up profiling. (I can do it, just ping me if there is consensus
on this).
