I'd be happy with the following resolution of these issues:
- remove xsd:duration alternate from the @value attribute
- if @type is to be retained (and I think it should) it should be
inherited from the typed class, or specified explicitly. Let's not have
it inheritable from more than one class, at least!
- @full is otiose, redundant, rebarbative and Should Go Now.
