Hi Sean,
Do you want some sort of "glue text" so that the guide can be read in a
linear way? Or is it text that you'll use over and over, such as "Now go
take the test." Let us know what you're trying to do.

You can't really strip a tag at a time without XSLT (the transform code
that lives in the Maven plugin).
