[tei-council] <notatedMusic> changes required

[Gabriel Bodard]

Then we're getting back to the argument that a different element than 
<ptr/> is needed here. Are we just using ptr now because we haven't 
invented that element yet? If so, why are we so exercised about whether 
or not it has an attribute value.

Perhaps, rather than @type='transclude', which as Martin points out is a 
bit odd with no @type='non-transclude' to contrast it to, we should just 
call it @type='externalObject' in honour of the soon-to-be-invented element?
