HTML5 have removed acronym, so I changed it to 'abbr'.

How's this?
<para>In the context of an <tag>acronym</tag>, the <tag>alt</tag> could
provide the <tag class="attribute">title</tag> attribute for the HTML

the expansion to be presented appropriately to the user (as a “tooltip”,
for example, or read aloud).</para>
