The source attribute on <att>, <gi>, and <tag> seems to me ripe for the 
chop. It duplicates a function better performed by namespaces (as the 
descriptive prose in the relevant tagdocs already points out)... I think 
it has survived so long solely for reasons of historical sentiment.

Unless anyone objects therefore, I propose to remove it. You have 48 
hours to object, starting now!
