Having investigated, Lyx turns out not to be at fault. Here are some
problems I have had with DocBook and sgmltools:
&ldquo and &lsqb: when sgmltools renders the sgml to text, rtf or ps
these work properly but in html output they appear in full instead of
" and [.
&tilde: Is this valid in DocBook? It comes out wrong in all the
formats.
If I'm not doing something wrong (most likely) then is it a DocBook or
sgmltools error?
