I don't see why. It's not as if TEI has a global rule that @type must be 
a data.name, whether it's defined in att.typed or elsewhere on an 
elementSpec. If we did have such a rule, then any local schema that 
loosened the datatype would be breaking conformance with the TEI as a 
whole, but if we define it differently in one case, that's the thing 
people need to be conformant with, surely?
