Should attribute GENRENAME in TGENRE be optional or required?

[ilovan]

In Bio schema (defined as part of CHRONPROSE), GENRENAME is not optional:

<element name="TGENRE">
                            <a:documentation
                                xmlns:a="http://relaxng.org/ns/compatibility/annotations/1.0"
                                >GenreName (or tGenre) is used to tag the name of the genre
                                according to a project-generated list of genre
                                names.</a:documentation>
                            <attribute name="GENRENAME">
                                <a:documentation
                                    xmlns:a="http://relaxng.org/ns/compatibility/annotations/1.0"
                                    >GenreName is an optional attribute that provides a pick-list of
                                    possible genre names to modify the element tGenre. It will prove
                                    especially useful in situations where the prose does not allow
                                    the concise naming of a genre that would be easily understood by
                                    a simpler name. Ultimately, this attribute will help us
                                    systematize and index references to various genre
                                    names.</a:documentation>

                        genre names to modify the element tGenre. It will prove especially useful in
                        situations where the prose does not allow the concise naming of a genre that
                        would be easily understood by a simpler name. Ultimately, this attribute
                        will help us systematize and index references to various genre
                        names.</a:documentation>
