Inheritance of external resource

Description:
I propose to change the inheritance of "external resource". With no inheritance, for this input file
http://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/drafts/its20/examples/xml/EX-externalresource-1.xml

there is the following artificial output (for "videodata"):

<node path="/doc/mediaobject[1]/videoobject[1]/videodata[1]"
outputType="new-value-global">
<output xmlns:db="docbook.org/ns/docbook">
<externalResourceRefPointer fileref="movie.avi"/>
</output>
</node>
<node path="/doc/mediaobject[1]/videoobject[1]/videodata[1]/@fileref"
outputType="no-value">
<output/>
</node>

With the inheritance set to "elements and attributes", the output looks like this:

<node path="/doc/mediaobject[1]/videoobject[1]/videodata[1]"
outputType="new-value-global">
<output xmlns:db="docbook.org/ns/docbook">
<externalResourceRefPointer fileref="movie.avi"/>
</output>
</node>
<node path="/doc/mediaobject[1]/videoobject[1]/videodata[1]/@fileref"
outputType="inherited">
<output xmlns:db="docbook.org/ns/docbook">
<externalResourceRefPointer fileref="movie.avi"/>
</output>
</node>

That is, the pointer to external information inherits to elements and attribues inside "videodata". I think we don't want that.

So I propose to change at
http://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/drafts/its20/its20.html#externalresource-implementation
"The information applies to the textual content of the element, including child elements and attributes. "
to
"There is no inheritance"
