James,
There being no MAJOR objections to your proposal to alleviate this royal pain in the neck, I add my endorsement: if you will do the work of straightening it all out yourself, then by the principle of "he who works hardest should be the leader" I say your solution ought to be respected.
Besides, it makes sense!
Uncle Ed

Hi Wilkiens,
We have a major problem over how to refer to members of a royal family other than monarchs. Different people are using any number of references, structures and names.

I know both Deb and Mav seem reasonably satisfied with the idea. Others have made minor suggestions for adaptions but seem happy with the overall idea.
