Suppose a protista named Aus bus under both ICBN and ICZN with a
single description in a single publication. How should it expressed?
If we allow a single spelling ("Aus bus") to have multiple NomenCode,
then elements. Otherwise, either will do.
I prefer to put it as a "locale" attribute of NameSimple, rather than
NameDetailed.
