for the sake of proper granularity, and in an attempt to disambiguate
the interpretation of the contents of <givenName>, would eml-dev
consider reducing the cardinality of the element to 0 to 1, and adding a
middleName optional element? of course, if middleName sounds to
straightforward you can use some other semantical contortion to refer to
such concept - say saddleName :)
the ambiguity causes trouble when matching subjects, migration to DBs, etc.
