Now I'm even more confused. ;-)

If I understood the original commit message correctly, you were saying
the XML file was not suitable for html generation and you wanted to
tweak it, and were dropping the PDF target to avoid breaking it.  Now
if I understand correctly you are saying the XML file actually *is*
suitable for html generation, and that the html generation rules just
need tweaking.  In that case, why remove the PDF target?

Puzzled,
Jonathan
