> Extending XInclude
> ------------------
> Norm sent email on behalf of DocBook at
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2011Jul/0013
> asking whether we want to consider extending Xinclude.
> 

The key issue is that xincluding content can often cause
duplicate ids, and the question is whether we can define
some kind of fix up.

Henry is skeptical about id fixup, and he considers IDs
as obsolete technology.

Norm doesn't see how scoped identifiers solves his problem.
See http://docbook.org/docs/transclusion-requirements/#uc-5
for a use case.

If we provide some kind of id fixup on xinclude, we could
provide some solutions to some use cases.

See http://www.docbook.org/docs/transclusion/#d6e180 for
some DocBook proposals for id fixup.

We'll plan to think about this some and revisit.
