Why did we decide to add @precision to att.editLike? Surely we only need 
@precision when the element supports a number attribute (@value, 
@quantity, aut sim.), and in that case the element should be a member of 
att.dimensions anyway, shouldn't it?

In any case, which elements in att.editLike were we specifically 
thinking need @precision?
