I don't think keeping it harms anything, but removing it looses the information that the type is a defined OSIS type. Removing the x- also introduces the possibility of collisions (e.g. the note types 'allusion' and 'x-allusion' would be mapped to the same class value), but this might be a desirable feature.<br><br>Should types & subTypes be composed or listed?
