    I assume creating an empty title element does not meet your needs. Omitting a chapter
    title raises a bunch of details.

    1. Would you be marking the special chapter or title element with an attribute, such
    as condition="foo", or will the stylesheet be trying to match on the text of the
    title?

    2. Would the chapter still be numbered, with just the title being blank, or do you
    want the chapter numbering sequence to "go around" the chapter with the missing title?

    3. Do you want the space preserved for the title on the chapter title page, or should
    the chapter content start at the top?

    4. Do you want the chapter omitted from the table of contents and PDF bookmarks?

    I could go either way with this.

    Keep the numbering.

    Start at the top.
