Hi Grahame, I am struggling a little to understand your concern about the Summary attribute (other than that is is not supported in the tools!). The current definition "optional summary data expressing e.g. text or image which summarises entire history." seems to me to meet your needs perfectly. I am obviously misunderstanding your requirement or we have different interpretations of the definition. How would you like to broaden the definition?
Apologies if this is old ground for some people, but I think the discussion is useful to a wider audience, in the context of a bit of blue-sky thinking for openEHR 2.0 and 13606 alignment.
