[osis-core] 3.2.17. Lines within a line group

[Patrick Durusau]

Chris,

Rather than overload type, which users may want for other purposes, 
would be better to add a level attribute, restricted to positiveInteger 
datatype.

Reasoning is that it is fairly close to presentation but since the user 
might be encoding what is observed, i.e, preserving information from the 
the encoding target, it is different from saying indent="0.24" or some 
such. It should also be noted that XSLT could not produce the desired 
result since it occurs without any known pattern, unless there is 
additional information recorded to make that possible.

Hope you are having a great day!

Patrick
