I've played with this a bit, and there are certainly a lot of 
interesting things that you can do with CSS nowadays that would preserve 
some semblance of semantic markup on both the DocBook side and the HTML 
side.  We haven't even considered what this new markup would do to 
non-visual consumers.

But my conclusion is that this new direction is bad and the old way was 
much better.  My vote is to keep what we had in PG12.
