RE: [dita] conref source and target [was: Why There are Constraints on Conref]
I usually say, "the conreffing element" and "the conreffed element".

And "conref element" vs. "content element" is misleading, enough

to offer a name, but to bring the relevent semantics into a different
focus, maybe more fruitful than the ambiguous source/target pair.
