Allowing only ITS attribute in its:span prevents using its:span with extensions to ITS, or just third party namespace in general. For example, one may have an implementation of Localization Quality Issue that uses properties not included in the ITS data category itself but that are needed for the given tool. Also, not all ITS data category are expressed with the ITS namespace: <its:span xml:lang='cs'>...</its:span>. > In this case "num" attribute carries some value which should be attached > to element from original vocabulary.

I agree: in this specific example having something like num is unlikely. (Actually using <its:span> here is kind of unlikely too, but I guess that's just an way to exercise the element). -ys
