bowerbird many thanks for the reference PGTEI I have missed somehow (not surprising I miss a lot of things).
It looks like much of the most important stuff has been done this has been a great reference for me and although you disagree with the direction it is just what I was hoping for.
Given what seems to be there, a subset definition (which requires no change to PGTEI) especially for epub, or whatever, is not hard to do, or a script to produce it not fundementally difficult.
I have a little long term project of my own all about marking up text graphically, and have done just a little preliminary codeing for it. I am waiting on the release of REBOL 3 to move that particular project forward I cannot make even vague promises about it though.
Suffice it to say, the program tool/application problem is the biggy. However, it does not necessarily mean big applications to solve it, but a slightly different approach to how tags are in fact applied.
In short you have made my day.
In terms of your own project, I am still very hazy, I will latter today or tomorrow go through the thread carefully because you have given examples and see what I can make of them.
