I don't have any special knowledge in my tiny brain, but I do know
where to look.
* the survey itself -- I believe quite a few librarians responded
* the current "TEI in Libraries" document, which explicitly says "we
prefer that <div0> not be used since the TEI Guidelines does not
make it available in <front> or <back> matter"[1]
* the proposed "TEI Tite" document, which lists <div0> as one of the
elements that has been excluded[2]
So I think we're pretty safe in ditching <div0> (as much as it breaks
my heart!)-:

I think I've already pointed out that disagreement in
number to them, but perhaps should mention it again :-)
[2] I just realized that this draft document has not been sent to
Council or the DLF yet, which I thought was supposed to happen
weeks ago. I will send an inquiry to John Unsworth right now.
