[tei-council] Tite ticket - pb at facs

I've no problem with the idea of saying that only <pb> should get @facs 
in lite, but the point of my comment was that it is not obvious how to 
avoid other things getting it too. In general, I think "cloning" 
attributes is not good practice, so it would be a useful exercise to see 
whether it is now possible to make just one element in a schema inherit 
from a supposedly global class. That was after all one of the purposes 
of the changes made for release 1.9

In response to Kevin's comment on the ticket: there is a big difference 
between pb at facs and graphic at url -- the latter means that there is an 
image here which forms *part of the text* -- the former means that there 
is an image of this part of the text here, but it is not a textual 
constituent.

I'm also a bit surprised to learn that data capture agencies want to use 
this feature: are they going to be supplying page images too? If so, 
shouldn't we be going the whole hog and adding <facsimile> and <surface> 
(at least) as well?
