Comment:
A global attribute "contentaddedbyeditor" would be incredibly useful when
testing for accessibility.  It would be great to be able to distinguish
between the template a template developer has produced, and the content which
an editor then fills into the template.  If this could be achieved by the
addition of a global attribute then a template developer could test their
parts of a published page, whilst the editor could test their parts of a
published page.  

I have suggested a global attribute rather than use data-contentaddedbyeditor
as each developer might come up with their own version of
data-contentaddedbyeditor which would not be good for standardisation.
