Dunno Matt Jockers, but I've certainly done a fair bit of mungeing of
Gutenberg texts into TEI in my time.
The usual problem is inconsistency: sometimes they use underlines to

out the div structure from the paragraph structure, sometimes not.
It depends really on what the purpose of the exercise is.
