Well, thanks, but... I think this only adds to my confusion.
Citetitle is not allowed in biblioentry. You put it inside a
bibliomisc tag, which according to the DocBook reference
is meant for "untyped information", which doesn't sound like
the right place for a perfectly standard and important piece
of information.
I am also somewhat surprised by the use of the same tag, with just a
different attribute, for two substantially different pieces of
information. Especially in a huge DTD like DocBook, which normally
provides separate tags for minute differences in meaning!
