That really doesn't do the job. The <p> is a container; it's
a much different matter to put an empty element inside a container
with the given attributes. What would it even mean -- that any
element containing that empty reference element has those attributes?
The other issue is that that is an abuse of the <reference>
element, which has different semantics.
