> XInclude @xpointer when parse="text"
> ------------------------------------
> Previous email discussion at
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2011Oct/thread.html#msg46
>
> and
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2011Nov/thread.html#msg12
>
>
> We seem to have three choices:
>
> 1. allow use of the @xpointer attribute when parse=text
> 2. add a new "@textptr" attribute to use when parse=text
> 3. add a new "@fragid" attribute to use in all cases and possibly
> deprecate the @xpointer attribute
>
> We are leaning toward choice #2 which Norm will include in the
> XInclude 1.1 requirements document and initial draft.
>
>
> Extending XInclude
> ------------------
> We've discussed extending xinclude to copy attributes on the xinclude
> element down to the root included element.
>
> Some issues include:
>
> 1. exactly what attributes to copy? Henry and Liam preferred to copy
> un-prefixed attributes (except those in the xinclude spec) too.
>
> Norm worries what this would mean if we add another attribute
> in the XInclude spec?
>
> Henry wants to be able to have unprefixed attributes copied
> onto the root included element.
>
> Henry: we could add a new "copy me without prefix" namespace to xinclude.
>
> Norm doesn't need that, but could live with it.
>
> 2. what to do about attribute conflict (error or one or the other
> wins).
>
> 3. whether we should "log" additions (e.g., via an attribute that says
> what attributes were added).
>
> At first, we didn't think this was much of a concern, but then we
> realized perhaps it was something worth considering.
>
> 4. whether we should have some way for targets to say whether they
> can be xincluded and/or, when included, have attributes added.
>
>
> XInclude 1.1
> ------------
> This would address the two issues discussed above:
> * @xpointer when parse="text"
> * copying attributes from the xinclude element to the root
> included element
>
> If we want to produce an XInclude 1.1, we will need an amended charter
> as indicated by Ian at
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2011Dec/0014
> but we can discuss requirements now.
>
> Norm drafted an initial XInclude 1.1 requirements document at
> http://www.w3.org/XML/2012/01/xinclude-11-requirements/
>
> We plan to clean up this draft a bit and publish it
> as a WG Note.
