[tei-council] @rend in Lite

The idea is fine. some niggles

I'd be happier if this list came from a recognized (and quoted) source;
"sup" is not a font variation, and where does "smcap" come from?
sadly "centre" should probably be "center"

hmm, you are implying one can use CSS in @rend here, if you use full TEI. 
this is potentially very misleading. in place of "more rigorous mechanisms"
maybe you mean "other, more rigorous mechanisms than <att>rend</att>"
