To be spec-correct when using named entities you need to declare one of the XHTML DTDs, which means that you cannot include any non-XHTML markup in the document (such as SVG or OPF namespace-case sections). These days there's no real reason to use entities anyway. Just use an editor which will allow you to insert the character directly and use an EPUB-valid Unicode encoding (UTF-8 or UTF-16).
