3.1.6.6 itemgroup

The <itemgroup> element can be used to sub-divide or organize elements that occur inside a list item, definition, or parameter definition.

The <itemgroup> element is particularly useful as a basis for specialization, where it can be used to group content within specialized list items or definitions. For example, in the OASIS task specialization, many elements within the <step> element are specialized from <itemgroup>.
