NP.

Shouldn't it be rather not applicable? Also, the inheritance should be
none, I think. Otherwise, for an input like this

<doc
  xmlns:its="http://www.w3.org/2005/11/its" >
 <its:rules version="2.0">
  <its:idValueRule selector="//text" idValue="concat(../@name, '_t')"/>
  <its:idValueRule selector="//desc" idValue="concat(../@name, '_d')"/>
 </its:rules>
 <msg name="settingsMissing">
  <text>Can't find settings file.</text>
  <desc>The module cannot find the default settings file.
     You need to re-initialize the system.</desc>
 </msg>
</doc>


We have an output like this:

 <node path="/doc/msg[1]/desc[1]" outputType="new-value-global">
         <output>settingsMissing_d</output>
      </node>
      <node path="/doc/msg[1]/desc[1]/em[1]" outputType="inherited">
         <output>settingsMissing_d</output>
      </node>
That is, the id inherits from "desc" to the child element "em".
So we should probably change
"The information applies to the textual content of the element, including
child elements, but excluding attributes."
to
"There is no inheritance."
What do you think?

You are right.

Thanks, will.
