I agree. I think what we wanted to do was identify a new sub-class of
phrase containing the components of <bibl> which were not already
members of tei.biblPart, factoring them out of the definition of phrase
in the process. <author> doesnt belong in the list at all, since it's a
member of tei.biblPart.
The issue now becomes whether a reference to tei.phrase.bibl would make
sense wherever we currently have a reference to either tei.hqphrase or
tei.data
If it wouldnt, and if we want to retain those class memberships for
<title>, <date>, <dateRange> then there is no point in defining this new
class.
