Embellish to taste, update .conf, and re-issue the module.

Problem solved.  Delta-T: 10 minutes.

All you do is to convince me, again and again, not to generate OSIS.

I absolutely do not care if it wouldn't pass muster "within an osisRef
attribute."  It passes muster NOW in ThML TODAY, because what I generate
gets USED by people who wanted it YESTERDAY.

ThML, to me, is about Getting Stuff Done, and using tools that
facilitate Getting Stuff Done, as opposed to wanking over whether I've
accommodated the Syntax Purity Demigods.
