## Description

Each heading in a `SegmentedList` is contained in its own `SegTitle`.

The relationship between `SegTitle`s and `Seg`s is implicit in the document; the first `SegTitle` goes with the first `Seg` in each `SegListItem`, the second `SegTitle` goes with the second `Seg`, and so on.

### Processing expectations

Segmented lists can be formatted in a number of ways. Two popular formats are tabular and as list of repeated headings and elements. In a tabular presentation, each `SegTitle` is a column heading. In the list presentation, each `SegTitle` is repeated before the corresponding `Seg`.

### Future Changes

The `InterfaceDefinition` element will be discarded in DocBook V4.0. It will no longer be available in the content model of this element.
