Renaming

Since we have agreed on a change that means that certain XML names are no 
longer possible in serialisations,  I have a proposal on renamings.

Currently, the syntax is

 name>name

where the first name is the name used in the syntax, and the second the one 
used in the serialisation.

If we allow two forms, the current

 name>name

and an additional

 name>"string"

it means we unbind the syntax of names used in the grammar from those used 
in the serialisation.

(This also means we *could* simplify the definition of names used in 
grammars).
