Tomaz has a good point here. Presumably att.editLike should inherit the 
@source attribute from att.sourced ?

I am waiting for someone to want @source to be added to att.global...

@source is the only attribute defined in the att.source class (with 
quote q writing egXML as members).
But @source is also defined (directly, not via class) as an attribute of 
att.editLike, so in fact quite a lot of other elements already have it.
Is there any particular reason that it is defined in two different 
places? I'd say it only confuses things.
And, yes, it would probably be a good idea to have source on even more 
elements, e.g. person and all its descendants.
Best,
Tomaž
