You are implying to Dot on TEI-L that you want to change
the datatype to permit multiple values. That seems a bit worrying to
me: it looks odd to say that something can have two places,
and it affects people whose tools assume that there is only
one value for the attribute. I'd have thought this is going beyond
corrigle error?
