[tei-council] eg bib refs

[Arianna Ciula]

If each <bibl> had a meaningful ID (e.g. authorname-date - by the way, 
some of these could be generated automatically now), you could refer to 
the already encoded bibl (xslt would make this an 'ibid' in the display) 
and add only the specific <biblScope>, but I don't think there is time 
for that, so I would go for (c) myself.
