Obviously we need to put some design thought into this feature, but I think that having this apply to *any* unrecognized attribute is probably a little too strong. I would suggest that it would make more sense to have a separate "metadata attributes" declaration attribute. DITA-aware processors would then use this attribute to determine which attributes are in fact metadata attributes, e.g.: <p metadata-atts="foo bar" foo="a metadata value" bar="another metadata value" fred="not a metadata attribute"> Cheers, Eliot -- W.
