[tei-council] limited phrase, take 2

[Syd Bauman]

>From a user perspective, the goal of the limited phrase project is to
have a smaller content model for lots of elements -- getting rid of
things like having <caesura> as a child of <resp>.

But from a class-management perspective, how to do this is an
interesting question. As I started setting up a list of model classes
that would need to be changed to implement limited phrases, it
occured to me that perhaps we weren't dividing them up at the right
level of abstraction. 

The current proposal boils down to the idea that model.phrase would
remain pretty much as it is -- an amalgamation of subclasses
(although some of those subclasses would be jiggled around a bit),
and a new class, call it 'model.limitedPhrase', would be created that
has as members only a subset of the same amalgamation of subclasses
that belong to model.phrase. (The current proposal is the original
proposal of some months ago modified a bit to take into account the
conversation that followed. This is what Council asked me to
implement on the last con-call.)

But alternatively, we could divide model.phrase into two main
branches: one that is the limited phrase set, and the rest. I.e.,
divide model.phrase at the top level, and use the "limited" subclass
(here called model.phrase.originated -- feel free to suggest a better
name) in contexts where a limited phrase content model is desired.

Here are the details of:
- what we have now
- the current proposal 
- a division of model.phrase into 2 main subclasses

Does anyone have reasons why one of these proposals is better than
the other? (BTW, don't get caught up in the names I've come up with
-- in fact, feel free to recommend better ones!)
