You wrote att.global, but did you mean att.global.facs?  This seems to 
be the case not just with the transcription module but also with core.

How about we soft-deprecate graphic at url in favor of graphic at facs?  (That 
is, we don't yet put graphic at url on a timeline for removal, but we also 
change the Guidelines to always recommend @facs instead of @url.)
