Technical content specializations to add to proposal #647
There are a lot of specializations of <topicref> in the technical content edition!
Here are my thoughts of what to include (and what to exclude): Elements to include: Elements that typically reference topics that might be about a wide variety of subjects: <appendix> <chapter> <glossref> <part> I was a little on the fence about enabling @subjectrefs on <glossref>, since glossary topics are tightly focused topics about a single term.
But then I thought of a few (credible?) use cases for it: Enabling folks to generate output based on a subjectScheme map (an explanation of subjects for the authoring team, perhaps) that would also include related terms If an implementation was using subject classification for some sort of faceted browsing experience, perhaps they would want to be able to surface related terminology Elements to exclude: All the list elements in bookmap All the bookmap elements that are narrowly focused and have specific sematic meaning, <colophon> and <dedication, for example All the bookmap elements that serve as a grouping element, <frontmatter> and <backmatter>, for example Thoughts?
Let me know if you object, preferably before I send an updated proposal to the list.
Best, Kris
