Not missed, perhaps poor implementation!

Problem was that we definitely wanted verse to default to canonical and 
note to default to non-canonical. There is no global set of attributes 
that would catch one and not the other.

One very ugly hack would be to put canonical on both globalWithType and 
globalWithoutType, with a default of true and for note (others?) simply 
declare their attributes on the element.

See OSISCore.1.4.63 for an example of such an implementation. (Not 
saying I like it but it was the best I could come up with this morning.)

Hope the day is off to a great start!

Patrick
