Certainly the better choice.

The reason is probably that hardly anyone except me uses SGML documents 
and an appropriate toolchain these days, so these errors may go 
unnoticed for years. As mentioned previously, I don't use docbook2pdf 
but a handcrafted toolchain using openjade and the DSSSL stylesheets for 
those few cases that require SGML documents. Once properly set up, 
things work flawlessly, but XML documents deserve different tools these 
days.

Markus
