I think there may be a gap in our documentation... Are spaces permitted in the attribute values for [Encoded Transliterations](https://wiki.crosswire.org/OSIS_Bibles#Marking_encoded_transliterations)? The example given is xlit="Latn:b_raShit" Is that low line character an intentional replacement for a space? Would it fail OSIS validation if a space were to be used? Also, what governs the prefix "Latn:" ? Are other scripts also a possibility, such as transliteration into Cyrillic? If a transliteration scheme other than the one defined by libICU is chosen, must the scheme be named in either the OSIS header and/or the module .conf file? - e.g. RTGS = Royal Thai General System of Transcription If so, then how?
