Likewise it's generally handy to be able to use the reg attribute to
<title> without having to escape this inability to do so by using <name
type="title">. We come across a lot of spelling variants of titles of
literary works, movies and journal titles in the corpus of letters we're
encoding using the DALF extensions to TEI. For processing reasons it's
handy to add regularized forms of these spellings to <title>.
