What others?

I did some research. It's in the semantics for "CSS3.lines". CSS2 and CSS1
support valign without length or percentage values (which is not better
than the default)
So, now I think we could declare %local.common.attr to include "style" for
all elements and use the CSS3 syntax&semantics.
For PNG: style="valign: -7px"
For EPS: style="valign: -5%"
I don't think there are any solutions yet which align inline math bitmaps
properly for DocBook. If you know any, please let me know.

I had a look now. LyX support for db5 will need a major rewrite, I think :-)
BTW, I have to more questions:
1. Are there any CSS stylesheets for Docbook XML? I could only find ones for
XHTML.
2. I think you were the last to work on docbook.layout & co. Couldn't we
add environments for admonitions etc quite easily? Also I think I spotted
one or two typos/mistakes related to the inclusion of counters.
