Ture it is not trivial but mantaining three diffenent docs on the same

And if you want to mark specific content within files for
different audiences, DocBook provides a set of effectivity
attributes for that purpose. These are included in the set
of common attributes that are available on most elements.

The DocBook effectivity attributes enable this multi-doc
feature, but it's not trivial to implement. But then, such
documents won't be trivial to write and manage either. 8^)
