So, the ('article-newspaper','article') bit would just be a long list 
of possible values?

Except the [1] you put near the end is saying to use the first in the 
list; right?  Does that not work if you have more than 2?  I'll 
probably ultimately have a list of ten or so optional types in each 
class.

I should add here I originally planned to not control the value of 
optional types in the config schema.  I've sort of concluded that's not 
practical between the schema and the xslt code.

If you mean the class business, all the logic says is if you have a 
relatedItem[@type='host'] (think DC isPartOf), you have a part of 
something else (and thus, it will have more than two titles, set of 
names, etc.).

Within "parts", you have the two classes: things issued once (like 
edited books), and issued continually (like periodicals).

In the schema, the classes are called part-inMonograph and 
part-inSerial respectively, but I really want to shield users from that 
awkwardness, so it is not apparent in the instances in any obvious way.

All else just has one set of titles, names, etc..
