?
We should divide strictly 1) the text on a charter from 2) the physical description and 3)its metadata and so perhaps he should use something like this: <cei> <charter> <text>(with the transcription/edition and/or the abstract) <physdesc> (with the description of all external and internal features) <metadata> (with all data belonging to the authenticity of the document)
