Of course for processing you need to assume assigned values, e.g.
withinText="yes". But since there is only one value for this data category
(which is different from translatability "yes" versus "no"), I thought there is
no need for a user to write an attribute. A processor can "assume" this value
just from the name of the <its:withinText> element. That is: the override you
are describing can work only relying on this name

I think so.
