[osis-core] milestone_Start/End/SE

[Troy A. Griffitts]

The case of milestone_SE is defined differently in Start and End


Could we do something about these inconsistently long and underscored 
element names and attributes with regard to the milestone elements.

Also, I really don't like doing milestones this way.  I lose all my 
attributes and have to *hack* them into subType.

I really think we need to allow _attribute declared_ milestones (same 
old song I've been singing for 6 months now) with attributes mStart and 
mEnd.

2 major benefits:

Get all of a tag's attributes.

Tags still get processed in the right place because they really are <q> 
or whatever.


I've not heard any voiced detriments in a while and I can't remember any 
that are specifically aimed at why the hideous:


<milestone_Start Milestone_SE="yoyo" type="q" 
subType="speaker:Joe|type:blockquote" />
Hi, I'm Joe.
<milestone_End milestone_SE="yoyo" />


is better than the elegant and understandable:


<q type="blockquote" speaker="Joe" mStart="yoyo" />
Hi, I'm Joe.
<q mEnd="yoyo />


  :)

I can't see any good reason to keep things the way they are and I guess 
I'm asking officially that it be changed.
