Longdescref element for image and object.
Longer description
Create new longdescref
element modelled after xref, with equivalent attributes but no subelements,
since there is no linktext or shortdesc required for this element's function.
Use Case
Need to have full range of
referencing capabilities (including scope, format etc.) - not just href attribute.
Technical Requirements
New element called
longdescref, available as an optional child element of image and object, with
the following attributes:
- href
- keyref
- type
- scope
- format
- id
- conref
- base
- rev
- status
- outputclass
- class
- props
- rev
- product
- platform
- audience
- otherprops
Costs
Trivial (copying xref and modifying
its content)
Benefits
Makes linking to supporting
resources from image and object consistent and more flexible.
Time Required
1 day to change
schemas/DTDs.
