[tei-council] remaining EEBO TCP issues

[Paul Schaffner]

To be exact, these are issues that remain (or did remain, before
some recent changes), *after* TCP output has been transformed
by Rahtzian magic. I.e., there are still some incompatabilities, but
most can be dealt with by some global no-look transforms. E.g.,
TCP postscript is still contained in closer rather than a sibling of
closer, but this can be transformed out of existence. And changing
all our milestones to labels is easy enough. (Etc., I am sure.)
The more substantial postscript issue (our more generous content
model) has already been dealt with. Ditto for signed. Location
at the top is not a big deal, since it can always be wrapped in
opener, and for us usually is.

The stage @place @n issue was I think prompted by stage
directions that take the form of typical flagged marginal notes(b)
