I have no knowledge about docbook. I never used it. I was just
wondering why so code is duplicated in the docbook functions. For
example, Tabular::docbookRowAsHTML and Tabular::docbookRowAsCALS seems
to duplicate much of Tabular::xhtmlRow. Isn't that an issue when
adding new features? Why not have common functions with only parts
that differ or so?

There is some degree of duplication between Docbook and LyXHTML code. I
think its because the latter is much older and Thibaut had to write its
own to produce Docbook. This has been brought up also when addressing
MathML production. I agree LyX needs more standard XML generating
functions.
Its part of a larger theme about XML production, and there was a talk
sometime ago about using a library for this.
I might be misunderstanding your comment. But actually, I wanted to
point not to the way XML is generated but more to the actual content,
for example, the specific attributes of an element which seem to be
duplicated. But maybe that problem is somehow dependent on the general
generation of XML?
