I guess I hadn't thought much about the necessity of <identifier
type="OSIS"> in any work other than *this* (C++ usage :) )
I was working under the assumption that the <refSystem> element
contained an identifier _pointing to_ a document that must have an
<identifier type="OSIS"> in its *this* work.
Does this make sense? Do you still disagree? If so, what do you see as
the difference between the refSystem value and your proposed identifier
value?
