I did. One day I'll get around to doing something with it <sigh>.

FWIW, the new elements are (with an example of use);

  <faqlist>
    <faqlistitem>
      <faqquestion>
        <para>This is a question in a FAQ.</para>

        <para>As you can see, it contain multiple paragraphs, and other
          DocBook block level elements.</para>
      </faqquestion>

      <faqanswer>
        <para>This is the answer to the previous question.</para>

        <para>Again, multiple paragraphs are encouraged. . .</para>
      </faqanswer>
    </faqlistitem>
  </faqlist>

However, for the general web site this is probably overkill. . .
