have a look at http://users.ox.ac.uk/~rahtz/passivetex/stock.pdf. 
A start at the XML source  is
http://users.ox.ac.uk/~rahtz/passivetex/stock.xml, but I have not
worked out the details of the table markup yet (using the TEI DTD, so
table markup is minimal). I am sure some kind soul could translate
this to Docbook or something.

The table is not `complex', but equally, I do not see how to render it 
as a list.

Anyway, the PDF file shows the running footer alternating on even/odd
pages, and containing the values of the section and subsection titles
for the current page. The running head is of the form "N of M", just
to add some entertainment.

No, I have not written the XSL spec :-} (will work on it)
