The model doesn't hold because attributes are not inherited. Anyway I'm not against adding a special "all" attribute, but if it can be avoided, I'm all for it. Time for another crazy idea. Last one on my side for today [cite ...] [(cite) ...] [Cite ...] [(Cite) ...] It should solve the :capitalize issue. Regards,
