Hi Kevin,
The 'appendix' information in the titlepage spec file is for an appendix in
a book, and those specs or generated templates are not used for an appendix
inside an article. The spec file system doesn't currently handle context
specifications like this:
<t:titlepage t:element="article/appendix" ...
The same is true for the section element, which should have different title
specs for different nesting levels.
The template that handles an appendix in an article has
match="article/appendix" in fo/component.xsl. You will have to customize
that template to add processing of subtitle.
You might also file a feature request on the DocBook SourceForge site to
enable the titlepage spec mechanism to handle elements in context.
