DR 10-0026 — OPC: dc:creator only once within a coreProperties element

This DR concerns the fact that there is no ability to specify dc:creator elements twice (once for Kanji; once for Kana).

This is a useful concern but I don't think that the way to add this feature is to modify the base standard and risk breaking existing compliant applications. It seems to me like this would be a great candidate for a possible addition to the extensions standard - we could easily add a whole set of equivalent Dublin Core elements inside an ignorable namespace using MCE.

Thoughts?
