As noted, make sure it is valid daisy html (anyway the htmlcleaner will
make sure it its) - otherwise use a document type like LiteralHtml,
which has its own drawbacks.

I assume this is for the manual editing phase... Daisy does store its
contents on the filesystem, but it is not intended to be edited manually
whatsoever.  If you want to edit the data, you should use the wiki
interface or make your changes on an exported set
('export-edit-import'), or before importing the first time
('prepare-edit-import')

Lots of luck,
