- [[MI One issue we might need to consider regarding this is specifying translatability. Translation tools usually specify either an element or an attribute as translatable/non-translatable. For example, you can specify <OK> as non-translatable, while <Cancel> is translatable. But if you do as <button id="OK".. or <button id="Cancel", then you cannot just disable translatability only for OK (unless otherwise a translation tool has some conditional mechanism in specifying translatability. This naming scheme may need to be considered only when translatablility doesn't matter.]]

- '''[[YS-''' I'm not sure I agree: we could have <button translate="no">OK</button> and <button translate="yes">Cancel</button>. And tools should be able to make the distinction no? I think the translatability should be independant from the element name. It's true that many current tools have that problem, but I would say it's a tool problem, not an XML issue. --- Masaki, did my comment make sense? For example, the problem you described was truie in Trados-6 bur is not true in Trados-7 anymore where you can specify parts that are translatation on attribute values (hence, demonstrating that it's a tool issue).''']]'''
