+If you don't specify `compatibility-mode`, the behaviour depends on whether or
+not you have a docinfo block. If you do it uses the file's quickbook version,
+if you don't it inherits the parent's compatibility mode even if you specify
+a quickbook version. This is the right thing to do - mixing compatibility modes
+within documents is problematic. It might actually be a mistake to allow them
+to specified outside docinfo blocks.

 This change is also backdated to older versions. So when including from an
 older version, the included file's version can be set (older versions
 ignore document info in included files).
