I'm honestly not sure of the answer on this one...
In full DITA, <keydef> allows processing roles of both "normal" and "resource-only". It defaults to "resource-only" and it's possible nobody has ever changed the default.
I noticed when helping fix up processing role here that in XDITA it only ever allows resource-only (that value is fixed). Not sure if that's intended as a way to prevent other uses, or just happened by some accident...

Sent by: <>
Dear LwDITA SC members,
While Robert Anderson was helping me rename the new entity for topicref processing in the XDITA map grammar files, he noticed that keydef has a fixed role of "resource-only."
Is this on purpose? Should it be fixed?
Best,
Carlos
