DOCBOOK-APPS: abbrev - missing possibility to add the meaning of anabbreviation

Hi,

 

I couldn't find 
any other docbook element for abbreviations than the abbrev 
element.

But I find 
that this element only denotes the fact that a sequence of characters is an 
abbreviation, and cannot explain what that abbreviation means. idem for the 
acronym element.

 

I was missing an 
attribute for the purpose of adding the <abbr 
title="etcetera">etc.</abbr> tags in an html output, that would make 
the page accessibility compliant.

 

Is there another 
way to have the same result and (here comes thé question) are there any chances 
to update docbook with this feature.

 

cheers,

vincent
