How do we feel about pos tagging? At present the Guiidelines say you 
have to do things like
<w ana="#NOUN">bum</w>

and point off stage to some definition for noun (an <interp> or a <fs> 
or something).

But why shouldn't I do

<w key="NOUN">bum</w>

meaning "Everyone knows what a NOUN is, but if you insist on finding out 
use this magic string 'NOUN' and some mechanism external to this 
document will enlighten you"
