The list allows people to do: divType="x-testament" without having to 
extend the schema. ;-) Well, guess we can add testament. ;-)

Want "changeType" for same reason. Can't anticipate all types of changes 
but keeps it from being completely open. (Odd that Mr. Constrainer 
(Todd) now wants completely open types. Must have had a bad experience 
in a cave near his new home. Likes lots of options. ;-)

Sorry about not responding on tenseChange, added to changeType.

Want to resolve them sooner rather than later! Should have worked more 
on it last week but other things had me distracted! ;-)

Any and all suggestions are really welcome, even if it feels like the 
camel has gotten more than his nose in the tent and has called for his 
relatives. ;-)
