Re: [docbook-tc] "Kahlúa" comments
/ Jirka Kosek <> was heard to say:
| Something like:
|
| db.length.type = string { pattern =
| "[0-9]*\.?[0-9]*(pt|cm|mm|in|pc|px|em|%)?" }

I don't think we want to do that. If someone wants to measure units
in barleycorns, who are we to object?

| attribute width { db.length.type }
| attribute height { db.length.type }
| ...
|
| Which will make documents containing things like width="it-depends" invalid.

I don't know if that's valuable enough or not. I guess we could do
something.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
