The max/min value element

Max/min value elements give you the ability to associate superlative phrases with columns. For example consider this example from geo.cphrase:

        <column id="population" type="int" lex="population,populations,...">
            <max lex="most people,most population,biggest population,..."/>
            <min lex="smallest population,lowest population,least populous,..."/>
    ...
This allows the user to ask questions like "the cities with the most people".

The DTD for max is:

<!ATTLIST max
          lex CDATA #REQUIRED
          description CDATA #IMPLIED>

lex is a set of comma separated phrases associated with the value.

The element min treated in an analogous way as max.
