Sounds as if <ph> should be a specialization of <text>. We are probably trapped by the past, however.
I wonder of <text> should be a specialization of anything or just a new addition to the base element set for topics and maps.

2. Makes the semantic clear (i.e., just a container of PCDATA with no other meaning or presentation expectation

What is the difference between <ph> and <text>? Are both needed?
