I assume that ‘inline’ is not referring to this, which I would take as indicating, for example, that a character had been squeezed between two others. I'm not sure what this should be called; '[superimposed](http://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/PH.html#instantcorr)' is one example in the Guidelines that isn't specific to a particular medium.\r\n\r\nIt could also be helpful to have a 'centre' or 'textblock' value (though there might be a better solution that I am missing here). For instance, if one is using this list to roughly record the position of an annotation on a page, what would one do if it was placed somewhere in the middle of the page (e.g. on a page with relatively little text, such as a title page or verso)?\r\n\r\nI also wonder about the definition of 'margin' as 'in the outer margin', whereas the Guidelines give it as '[in the margin (left, right, or both)](http://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/ref-att.placement.html)'. The TEI Simple additions pinpoint the ambiguity precisely, but on the other hand I can see them leading to inconsistency, with some people using 'margin-left' and 'margin-right' and others 'margin' – and then what if you wanted to say that something was in the inner margin?"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/TEIC/TEI-Simple/issues/comments/94319713","html_url":"https://github.com/TEIC/TEI-Simple/issues/12#issuecomment-94319713","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/TEIC/TEI-Simple/issues/12","id":94319713,"user":{"login":"sebastianrahtz","id":795754,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/795754?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/sebastianrahtz","html_url":"https://github.com/sebastianrahtz","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/sebastianrahtz/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/sebastianrahtz/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/sebastianrahtz/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/sebastianrahtz/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/sebastianrahtz/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/sebastianrahtz/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/sebastianrahtz/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/sebastianrahtz/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/sebastianrahtz/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-04-19T22:24:53Z","updated_at":"2015-04-19T22:24:53Z","body":"\"Is there a standard way in Simple to specify whether a page is a recto or a verso\" - an interesting idea.
