Re: [dita] Why There are Constraints on Conref
While I agree that we need to be consistent, the terms "source" and
"target" used alone will always be ambiguous. I think we need to avoid
using them and come up with new terms or phrases to describe the two
locations.  My problem, having said that, is that I'm not feeling
particularly creative and don't have any really good alternatives to
suggest.

Some "not so good" possibilities:

"conref location" (the location with the element that has the conref
attribute)

"conref content location" or "content location" (the location with
the content that is being reused)
