I discovered that 20 minutes after posting that message. Sigh. Next time
I'll read the DTD until I figure it out. :-)

I would like to propose the following change to Cougar[0]:

A new entity:
<!ENTITY % Battrs "%style %i18n %just">
This is used instead of %attrs on the following (block) elements:

<H1>, <H2>, <H3>, <H4>, <H5>, <H6>, <ADDRESS> <P>, <UL>, <OL>, <DIR>,
<MENU>, <PRE>, <DL>, <DIV>, <BLOCKQUOTE>, <FORM>, <HR>, and <TABLE>.

Did I miss any?
