Then, we are forced to have six elements in six documents, and each of the attributes
specifies one set of kanjis. Thus, we cannot have a *single* attribute specifying
the union of six sets of kanjis. However, in my understanding, your current draft
requies that a single attribute specifies the union.

This is clearly unacceptable.

Do you agree that your draft (even combined with entities, which are
archaic) is not powerful enough to define a family of kanji sets?

If so, we can probably agree that (1) Part 7 should provide some mechanism
for such definitions and that (2) some conformance level of Part 7 should
require that mechanism (without using any other schema languages). I would
like to move the rest from Part 7 to some other part (e.g., Schematron).
