second-field-align-opt = attribute second-field-align { “true” | “margin” }?
With the “true” option, I’d also expect there to be a “false” option.
Secondly, I’d argue that the option is also true if the value is “margin”. I
think renaming “true” to “flush” (as in, setting the citation flush to the
margin) would clear this up. Agreed?
