Should this take account of the @scheme attribute then? On that 
note I've wondered a couple times whether @scheme should either 
not be data.enumerated or be replaced or complemented with @ns 
for an actual namespace.  Though I suppose you might want both. 
You might want to be able to say:

===
<p><gi ns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0" 
scheme="TEI">persName</gi> allows many elements inside it but in 
<term>TEI-Simple</term> <gi ns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0" 
scheme="TEI-Simple">persName</gi> has been changed to only allow 
forenames and surnames.</p>
===

(Ok, a fictitious example but both these different 'schemes' 
would be in the same namespace.)
