Consolidation with EAD

[ailie-s]

Not sure whether this is a request to better describe the <control> element or to include more elements within <control>. Both <eadheader> and <descrules> have been omitted from EAD3, and <conventiondeclaration> (which is already in EAC-CPF) has replaced <descrules>.
We can certainly improve the description of <control> in the Tag Library based on EAD's description. More detailed examples of usage could be included in best practice guidelines.
