[osis-core] type for <l>

[Patrick Durusau]

Greetings!

Some type ago Todd asked about using the following types for lines (he 
got this from Jim Albright):

refrain
interlude
doxology

We bounced it back and forth but really came to no real conclusion.

While reading the email traffic it occurred to me that these are not 
really line types, although they may only apply to one line.

They are really lineGroup types that may contain one or more lines.

Think about it. Sometimes there are one line refrains, but not really 
all that often, particularly in liturgical settings. Same thing for a 
doxology. Not as sure about interlude because I don't recall how Jim is 
using the term.

Any thoughts on creating enumerated types for lineGroup?

That does have the impact of making lineGroup necessary even if you do 
have only one line but suspect that is the minority of the cases.

Jim, since this was your question, what do you think?

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Patrick
