DOCBOOK-APPS: abbrev - missing possibility to add the meaning of anabbreviation

[Vincent Mouton <vincent.mouton@ellips.be>]

Hi,

 

I couldn't find any other docbook element for abbreviations than the abbrev element.

But I find that this element only denotes the fact that a sequence of characters is an abbreviation, and cannot explain what that abbreviation means. idem for the acronym element.

 

I was missing an attribute for the purpose of adding the <abbr title="etcetera">etc.</abbr> tags in an html output, that would make the page accessibility compliant.

 

Is there another way to have the same result and (here comes thé question) are there any chances to update docbook with this feature.

 

cheers,
