Here's some good content on the hows/whys of the OMF engine:
http://www.ibiblio.org/osrt/omf/faq.html
I think it's important for an author to understand how to
include proper metadata in *their* DocBook documents so that
it can be parsed and *feed* the OMF engine easily. This gives
the author an idea on how this data can be effectively used and
why we "require" (strongly advocate?) it.
