Although the current wording is extremely confusing to XML or SGML
experts, I agree that changing key words is too dangerous. However,
I would argue that editorial changes are needed.
It appears that OOXML never uses xsd:ID or xsd:NMTOKEN as an identifier.
If this is the case, I would propose to introduce a subclause somewhere
in Part 1.
*.* Identifiers in 29500 (Normative)
Identifiers in this International Stadard shall be numbers
rather than names as defined in XML.
Example: The attribute numID (Part1, Clause 17.3.1.19) specifies
an integer rather than a name.
Note: Schemas in this standard does not specify the datatypes
xsd:ID and xsd:IDREF for any of the attributes or elements
introduced in this International Stadard.
Cheers,
Makoto
