Of Rodolfo's stunning brilliance I have no doubt, but on reflection my personal choice would not be to invent yet another element when we already have <g> and <x/>. Everyone involved with XLIFF knows what these are and what they mean and they have the added benefit of being backwards compatible with all versions of XLIFF and even OpenTag.

So does this mean we're looking at something more like the <itag> proposal Rodolfo and I made for TMX that used only a single tag that could optionally encapsulate content? If so, I can dust off the proposal we made then and see what loose change it has in its pockets that we can use ;-)
I’m not arguing to reuse it (unless it turns out to have been a work of stunning brilliance due to Rodolfo’s influence, which is entirely possible) but just to see what might have been useful in it.

Hi Bryan, Rudolfo and Arle,
I would like to carry this through also into TMX 2.0, which I will be working on in November. Then we will finally have a sane and secure way of handling inline coding between XLIFF and TMX.
Rodolfo's point is imminently correct: only <g> is absolutely necessary. I am still mulling over <x/>. What do the rest of the committee think?
