Agreed.

Hmmm, would think that you should use one or the other. Content model is 
the same.

Part of me says that we should drop <div type="chapter"> since users 
have the option of using <div type="book"> followed by <chapter> and 
<verse>. Seems to me confusing to have other documents that are: <div 
type="book"> followed by <div type="chapter"> and <verse>.

Does seem cleaner in terms of instruction to say 
div(type="book")/chapter/verse as the option if you want chapters, and 
div(type="book")/div(whatever type/whatever other divs, etc for other works.

Comments?
