New description:

 It's probably impossible to get quickbook to always generate valid
 boostbook, but we could make some small improvements. In this case:
 {{{
    [section ...] ... [endsect]

    [#target]

    [section ...] ... [endsect]
 }}}
 Docbook doesn't allow anchors between sections (so neither does boostbook)
 - but the anchor could be placed in the following section's title. This
 has been causing problems for fop.

 It might also be useful to warn about paragraphs between (or after)
 sections when valid boostbook can't be generated.

Comment:
 The anchor part of this was fixed in [67324]. Other content between
 sections isn't handled, but I think that anchors were the important part,
 so I'm marking this as fixed.
