Trying to run the html2 transformation on OT 2.3.1. It fails with this error:

If you want to know the official DITA OT policy on using the keydef.xml: https://github.com/dita-ot/dita-ot/issues/2389 Basically once the DITA 1.3 key scoping was introduced, you can no longer express in one XML file all this complexity so from what I remember there is a stage in the publishing engine which expands keyrefs and conkeyrefs to hrefs and conrefs in the temporary output folder. So the DITA For Publishers would need to be adjusted for this.
