[tei-council] 2.4.1?

[Gabriel Bodard]

Just curious: do people think this bug 
(https://sourceforge.net/p/tei/bugs/585/) a candidate for rapid 
inclusion in a maintenance release? I know it would make this release 
2.5.0 not 2.4.1, but I think it is demonstrably an oversight dating 
right back to the creation of the element, it would not break backward 
compatibility, and there is compelling need for it.

If there's any resistance to this suggestion, I'm happy to hold back 
until after the maintenance release and push this in as soon as possible 
thereafter.

(Would adding some [unrelated] examples of usage to an elementSpec be 
appropriate behaviour during a repo chill?)

Cheers,

Gabby
