Spec Issue: Addressing Nested Topics

The DITA specification defines an addressing scheme for
topics and another for “topic content”.[1] Topic content is not
defined. Presumably it just means “sub-elements of topics”. Topics
can be sub-elements of other topics. In this case, is either addressing scheme
appropriate?

While I am asking questions about this section: it seems not
to deal with ID attributes on topicheads and topicgroups. There may be other unaddressed
elements.
