attributeReference field in eml-constraint

[Matt Jones]

Hi Peter,

We've been starting to work with eml-constraint more and ran into a 
potential bug.  I vaguely remembered that you might have worked with 
this module some, so thought I would see what you thought.  The 
entitryReference field says it points at an id as I expected, but the 
attributeReference says it is the name of the attribute, not a pointer 
at the id.  Confusingly, though, the EML  parser is configured to check 
if it is pointing at an id, and if not it throws an error.  So, do you 
know if the attributeReference documentation is wrong, or if the EML 
Parser is configured wrong?  Seems to me that one or the other is wrong, 
in that they are inconsistent.  Thanks for the input.

Matt
