Ok. No problem.
Thus, can I expect that you still want to have the proposed feature in
ODF and that you will continue your work on the proposal?

As far as I know the TC discussed in its call at 2008-07-14 such a
general marking mechanism. But, the TC did not decide anything.
As far as I remember there are some TC members (including me) that would
support such a general marking mechanism. I did not remember a argument
against such a general marking mechanism.
It is your proposal. Thus, it is up to you to change the proposal.
As I already expressed I support the idea/feature behind this proposal,
because it would fulfill the feature request which I have made - see
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/office/200710/msg00120.html.
I could imagine to play an active role for this proposal (or a changed
one proposing a general marking mechanism) - e.g. being one of the
proposers. But, I currently do not know, if your interests somehow fits
to my interests and can be brought in line - see my made remarks and the
following thread.
Best regards, Oliver.
