Re: [dita] Attributes when using
conref
I'm in favour of using both, with the source's attributes winning in a
pitched battle. IE, the conreffing element can override attributes on the
target, where necessary (eg adding a conditional property, or an
outputclass value...)

[dita] Attributes
when using conref
I could not find this in our doc:
When I conref an element, should I used the attributes from the source or
from the target? My first idea is to use the target's attributes.
What do you think?
