Description

Per @GVogeler:
From the authentication point of view a missing seal is a seal with an attribute "missing". From the textual transimission point of view, it is a physical feature (ovservable: wholes, infered: missing seal), so we could treat it with the same attribute. From the editorial point of view, people want to mark the position of the seal in relation to the text - and even with a reference to a missing seal. (SPD for Sigillum pendens deperditum). Having something to encode this would be beneficial. There was even once a dicussion on TEI-L, if I remember it correctly, where Thomas Staecker and me discussed the "L.S." abbreviation in charter copies (abbreviation for "locus sigillum").
