The nice thing is that they provide template styles so that you can  
use OpenOffice (or Word) to do it all in a sort of WYSIWYG  
environment.  It was quite painless for me when I did it.  I'm new to  
docbook, but I can't see any reason why a few styles added to  
OpenOffice can't wrap up the complexities of the XML creation.  For  
that matter I'm sure a simple (not simple for me) web form wrapped up  
with some controls in javascript couldn't handle it all if you wanted  
a web interface :)
