Re: <additions> again

Dear *,

thanks for your remarks and for revising the example in the guidelines. 
We have discussed the proposals in our project and we will try to do it 
with <list>, because it seems possible in our case and we want to stay 
conformant with P5. But the other solutions sound very interesting, 
especially the proposal with <msItem>. Thus, I took the liberty of 
summarizing the discussion in a feature request:

https://github.com/TEIC/TEI/issues/1542

Feel free to comment.

Best,
Philipp
