Subject: Re: [office] id or xml:id attribute?
Bruce, A further wrinkle: Note that text:id is defined as string not ID. I have not checked on the others. I will have to re-read the spec but to change the interpretation of text:id to be ID may pose backward compatibility problems. Hope you are looking forward to a great weekend!
