One minor nit. There are 5 named entities allowed in epub3, & amp;, & lt;, & gt;, & apos; and & quot;.

I also ran into one epub3 where the author decided to add a mass of entities using:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html [
   <!ENTITY nbsp "& #160;"> 
   <!ENTITY Aacute "& #193;"> 
   <!ENTITY bull  "& #8226;">
   <!ENTITY ldquo "& #8220;">
   <!ENTITY rdquo "& #8221;">
   <!ENTITY pound "& #163;"> 
   <!ENTITY iquest "& #191;"> 
....  for about 20 more entries.
