Hi Leif.

The current editor's draft (26 January) says this:

7. Attributes

Within an attribute's value, polyglot markup represents tabs, line feeds, and
carriage returns as numeric character references rather than by using literal
characters. For example, within an attribute's value, polyglot markup uses
&#x9; for a tab rather than the literal character '\t'. This is because of
attribute-value normalization in XML [XML10].

I believe this satisfies the request in comment 17. Please let me know if it
does not or if there's anything else I can do.

Thanks so much.

Eliot
