Related notes:

The intent was to mimic ​TTML styles features, e.g. tts:visibility​, which use the terms "Applies to:" to specify the element(s) to which they apply.

Suggested edit: change "SHALL NOT apply to elements other than ..." to "applies to the elements ..."

[nigel]: [meeting 2015-10-08] See also Action-432 - it may be possible to avoid the problem by referencing tech3350 v1.1.

[nigel]: [meeting 2015-10-15] see Action-432 update.

From my view the wording is correct. It is not a constraint on document structure but on how the implementation must apply the values of the attributes when rendering TTML.

Andreas Tai, 16 Oct 2015, 11:15:00

I am not so sure that is clear Andreas - the introductory text before the features table says that the feature list is intended to constrain document instance conformance. This may be part of a bigger issue, see for example Issue-450 and Issue-452.

However I do think it could be a reasonable response that the answer to Glenn's question is: the 'specifies' bullet proscribes/permits the attribute on the listed elements; AND the 'applies' bullet defines the interpretation (e.g. by a processor) of the attributes. In that case I would still propose to change "SHALL apply" to "applies", at least until a wider solution is agreed for issue-450.

[nigel]: [meeting 2015-10-30] agreed to say for #linePadding and #multiRowAlign that they shall be applied to p and that they shall be treated as inheritable.

[nigel]: [meeting 2015-10-30] Also note that issue-450 was resolved so the conformance language problem no longer applies.
