I'm not saying they ought to be the same. I'm just saying there ought
to be a way that the author can set something and have the description
metadata be included in the HTML file. I guess the tricky thing is
figuring out if we can use the content of an existing DocBook tag
(i.e., "abstract" on containing element?) or whether we'd have
to use a PI or something....
