Not really. It still seems that the "SHOULD NOT" contradicts the "DOM Consistency" the text refers to.

And it still looks very inconsistent: If there is nothing that prevents to use its:* attributes in XHTML why aren't we using them since we say to use <its:rules> directly without <script>? ...Or vice-versa.

Note also that an XHTML document could hold SVG or other XML vocabularies and we would apply the ITS XML processing inside those, ..aren't we?

But I may be missing something.
