In all of the material I've added to the spec, I've referred to the
"target" as the item pointed to by the conref attribute. Like Eliot, I've
thought of conref as an address, which points to a target. However, I've
always recognized some confusion with source/target on their own, so when I
talk about it, I usually try to call it "the target of the conref
attribute" to try and be explicit.
Not sure that helps any, but it means if we go the other way, I know all of
the conref material I've put in the spec needs to be reversed.
