>          Issue Type: New Feature

> Looking at the rules files for ITSM, we can see there are several data categories that cannot be mapped by rules because they do not
> have pointer attributes available.
> - Localization Quality Issues
> - Localization Quality Rating
> - Provenance
> - MT Confidence
> This means a pure ITS processor cannot process an XLIFF document and get any data for those data categories.
> This would be resolved if the namespace was ITS' rather than the ITSM (ITS Module) namespace.
> I believe we selected early on to go with ITSM even for the data categories defined from scratch because of the <sm/> case where the
> semantics need to be adjusted. Since, we establish (I think) that the <sm/> case is such that ITS processors cannot really resolve
> it anyway.
> In other words, the <sm/> case is hopeless if you are not an XLIFF processor, whether you use ITS or ITSM, and XLIFF processors do
> treat <sm/> in a special way in the case of ITSM. They could do the same for ITS.
> Hence, it seems all the data categories that ITSM implements 'from scratch' could be in the normal ITS namespace, and work for both
> XLIFF and ITS processors.
