+   * - Index: A kind 30040 event describing a collection of zettels or other Nostr events.
+   * - Event: The generic term for a Nostr event.
+   * 
+   * Asciidoctor entities:
+   * - Document: The entirety of an AsciiDoc document.  The document title is denoted by a level 0
+   * header, and the document may contain metadata, such as author and edition, immediately below
+   * the title.
+   * - Section: A section of an AsciiDoc document demarcated by a header.  A section may contain
+   * blocks and/or other sections.
+   * - Block: A block of content within an AsciiDoc document.  Blocks are demarcated on either side
+   * by newline characters.  Blocks may contain other blocks or inline content.  Blocks may be
+   * images, paragraphs, sections, a document, or other types of content.
+   * - Node: A unit of the parsed AsciiDoc document.  All blocks are nodes.  Nodes are related
+   * hierarchically to form the Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) representation of the document.
