Description
A MsgExplan contains some sort of explanatory information about a Msg or a set of Msgs in a MsgEntry.

Formatted as a displayed block. Sometimes suppressed.
If a MsgEntry contains multiple Msgs and multiple MsgExplans, DocBook makes no assertions about how they are related.
On the whole, the semantics of MsgSet are not clearly defined.
