RE: [dita] Chunking topic in the specification

["Bruce Nevin (bnevin)" <bnevin@cisco.com>]

It looks like a placeholder for a paragraph that was to be written.

In XMetaL, <?xm-replace_text Some Text Here?> is displayed as Some Text
Here, then when the user clicks anywhere in that text the whole of it is
highlighted, and when the user types anything the whole of it is
replaced by whatever the user types. 

I've only used these in creating templates for users.
