Guys,
Dallas issue:
Identifier with element
Original issue list says:
> The question I have is how do associate an identifier with an element.
> For example if I wanted to say that a paragraph or other block of text
> is about "anger".
>
> The best I can come up with is a <note> element with an osisRef to
> desired text. (Similar to a cross reference)
>
> This will work with scripture text with a well defined reference
> system, but for non-Biblical text that often does not have osisIDs
> this becomes an issue. (This would likely be resolved if
> XPath/XPointer like syntax were allowed in a reference or reference
> like element.) (Todd)

Use the index entry within the element in question. Use the index or
level1-4 attributes to record the information.
