I've been thining about this. It would be perfect to have
only a source files and generate what's needed when it's
needed. The problem, I guess, is that we cannot expect
users to be able to process DocBook/SGML files in order to
get what they want.
BTW. The only international support I found in DocBook is
the "lang" attribute that enables proper (language-specific)
substituting of words like "Chapter", "Section", "Figure",
etc. I don't have enough DocBook experience to claim that's
all, although.
