Thanks Shaun! xmlstarlet is packaged for Ubuntu. I resisted the urge to
play with this for the rest of the day (seriously, I want to histogram
everything) and have attached the results of a few queries for our docs.
We have comparatively few <screen> and <td> elements, so it's mostly the
<para>s we need to look at. I don't think that writing a script to deal
with translations would be too big a job.

Thanks,

Phil
