I'm planning on making the parser have the |-table be optional, so we can add
it later.

inserting the "X-Form" text at the end of the title -- that should be trivial
to make the shell script move to the correct place since it's just on the next
non-blank line. (though obtaining that form name from fields.txt will be more
complex, so i'm just planning on moving the existing form name to the correct
place and the python parser can just check for consistency, to be added later).

this section *is* the free-form text i was talking about. perhaps describing it
as free-form was misleading,

this needs to be a html comment since there is no text "Description in English
language" in the v3.1B pdf (unless v3.2 changed that?).

likewise, there is no "Pseudocode" text so that also needs to be a comment.

both of those changes are trivial to do with the shell script (though the
english description section will be empty, ready to be filled in)

using insndb to insert that section is unnecessarily complex, the shell script
can easily do that.
