I understand the need to conceal the date, publisher etc for most PG books.
But I think an exception could be made if the book is over 100 years old. Books
of this age are likely to be among the first published and hence have
authenticity. Often the publisher has ceased publication, and in this case (as
opposed to being bought out) there is no harm in listing the publisher.

And it
would be great to have the complete bibliographical record of the
book (o
books) used as source for the digital edition on every new
text.
Or at least the date of original publication and the name of the original
publisher. Not having those makes it difficult to cite the book in research
work. I usually resort to going to the Library of Congress record to get that,
and then include the fact that this is an on-line edition etc. etc. etc.
