RE: SSML 2.3.2 mark Element. Clarification please

If you deem it to be out of scope of SSML then fine.
I'm less convinced that SSML provides the triggers

I take this as a use case that you are rejecting.
OK.

I would request that this use case be considered for
the requirements for the next issue.
