xref conflicts

[Jeremy Legron <jeremylegron@*********>]

I don't know whether this has already been discussed but there are some 
ambiguous situations regarding the xref elements.

It is indicated in the document type declaration that "the target keb or 
reb must not contain a centre-dot". However some targets do have the center 
dot, for example: "ルポルタージュ・ライター", "文禄・慶長の役" and "タックス・ヘイブン". I don't think 
this is very much a problem for these examples as they can be handled with 
a few tweaks but the wording of the document type declaration is misleading.

A more annoying problem is that some xref don't have a precise enough 
target. An example is "<xref>元・もと・1</xref>", there exists several entries 
with 元 as a keb and もと as a reb.

Is there a way to get around this problem?
I guess we could had the targeted ent_seq in the xref element to get ride 
of these ambiguous situations, but it would take a lot of time considering 
how large this dictionary is.
