I think this is being proposed as an addition to 1.2 - or that was my
understanding anyway. It's not on the list right now.

When we closed the list to new requirements back in (May?), we said that we
would have to vote to accept adding anything else to the list. So, if the
TC doesn't vote to add this to 1.2 then the design is irrelevant at this
point.

Is this for dita 1.2?

I don't remember discussing it, and I don't see it at
