I wonder if this could be a problem for some languages where a word
changes when used in e.g. singular/plural form, or with declinations,
cases, and so on.  A prime example: in the Russian version of the
Handbook, the title for chapter 4.5 is "Использование Коллекции Портов",
and the word used, 'Kolekcii', is a derivative of the word 'Kolekcija'.
How exactly should this be represented using entities? :)

G'luck,
Peter
