Comment:
Regarding Section "The translate attribute":

If I am writing prose of fiction, and I write a name I don't want the
translation mechanism to translate, then I understand I would set the
attribute to "no" on that particular word.

But. When I write (for example) in Polish, then a declension could be applied
to the word. The problem is, I'd like to instruct the software that when a
translation (for example) to English is applied, the software should not
translate the word, but only change its grammatical form to match that of the
target language.

For example, I am using the word "realm" in the meaning of "space" AND
"kingdom", so if it's translated, then the double meaning will be lost.

Since the specification says that "no" means to "leave it unchanged", what I
understand means to not apply any transformation at all to the text, I cannot
possibly instruct the software to act the way I'd want it to.

This could be solved by a new text-level element, since it only applies to a
text, or a boolean attribute on the span element.

I understand it's an obscure problem, though.
