modules, elements, attributes, value-lists are treated uniformly
each has an identifier, a gloss, a description, and one or more equivalents
each can be added, changed, replaced, deleted within a given context
for example, membership in the tei.typed class gives you a generic TYPE, which can be over-riden for specific class members
